HOW TO FREEZE FRESH PICKED BLUEBERRIES | JUST A PINCH RECIPES



HOW TO FREEZE FRESH PICKED BLUEBERRIES | Just A Pinch Recipes image

I have blueberry bushes and it's enjoyable to watch them get ripe. When I go to pick them it's too tempting not to eat some right from the tree. Blueberries stay pretty free from insects, birds will steal a few so I pick the deep blue ones everyday. They get sweeter left on the tree longer. If I'm planning to freeze them I let them sit in an open weaved basket in the indirect sunlight 2-3 days prior to freezing.
