The farmer's market had a great deal on blueberries recently, so we bought a flat of them. There were too many to use right away so I decided to freeze some for later.
Supplies:
- blueberries
- gallon ziplock bag
Steps:
- Sort through the blueberries, removing any yuck ones and picking off the stems.
NOTE: It is recommended that you do not rinse the blueberries prior to freezing. Instead rinse them prior to use.
- Line a cookie sheet or shallow pan with wax paper. Then spread the blueberries out in a single layer. Place them in the freezer and allow them to freeze completely.

- Pour the frozen blueberries into a gallon ziplock freezer bag. Label the bag with the date and contents, then return them to the freezer.

- When you are ready to use them, place them in a colander and rinse them thoroughly.

- Lay out some paper towels and pour the blueberries onto them. Gently roll them around or blot them with additional paper towels to dry.

Too late! I already rinsed them...spun them well in the salad spinner and froze them on a cookie sheet in a single layer and then freeze. They are so good. I like to eat them frozen. It's like a blueberry mini-popsicle!
