Freezing Berries

I love freezing berries while they are in season! These
huge blackberries will be wonderful this winter!
If you freeze them laying on a jellyroll pan before putting
them in a Ziploc, they will be separated instead of frozen
in a big block. They're instantly ready to toss into muffin
batter or on top of pancakes.

  1. That is the way I did my blueberries too. Thanks for sharing.

  2. ...except that don't these blackberries have crunchy seeds inside, which means that it makes your food have texture, which of course means I have a texture issue with the food...we're back to that food in my food thing again.

    But do this with a blueberry like Valerie and I'm all over it!

  4. Hi Betsy,
    Those berries look wonderful. It will be a few weeks before they are ripe for picking over here. I am looking forward to a blackberry pie.

  10. those look so delicious - if I lived closer to you, I would help you taste them.

    will you be baling a cobbler with any of them?

  12. That's a good idea. We have wild blackberry bushes up and down our road and driveway. The trick is to get to them before the bears do and the bears don't usually wait til they're perfectly ripe so it's a battle.

  15. Looks wonderful...I had the most delicious berry salad this weekend. This takes me back to my Grandmother's when my cousin, brother, sister, and I would help pick blackberries for cobbler or jam. We always had to make sure and watch for those nasty Copper Heads as they loved to hide in the patches...
