Questions about Blackberry

How should you wash and store blackberries?

Rinse them gently under cool running water just before eating, then drain and pat dry; damp berries spoil faster. Keep unwashed blackberries in a shallow container in the fridge and use them within a few days.

Can you freeze blackberries without them clumping together?

Yes. Rinse and dry them thoroughly, spread them in a single layer on a tray and freeze until firm, then transfer them to a sealed freezer bag or container. Use them straight from frozen in porridge, smoothies or baking.

How do you stop blackberries sinking in a cake?

Pat them dry and toss them lightly in flour before folding them into the batter. For an even distribution, use small berries and fold them in gently at the very end.

What can you make with a glut of blackberries?

Cook them into jam, compote or a crumble filling. For a quick compote, simmer the berries with a little sugar and lemon juice for about 10 minutes, stirring until they burst and the juices thicken.

Do blackberries go with savoury food?

Yes: their tartness works well with roast duck, game, goats’ cheese and peppery leaves. Try them in a salad with goats’ cheese and walnuts, or simmer them into a sharp sauce for roast meat.

How can you tell if blackberries are ripe and fresh?

Choose plump, dark, glossy berries that come away easily from the plant; avoid crushed, leaking or mouldy fruit. A blackberry is an aggregate fruit, made up of many tiny drupelets clustered around a core.

Are blackberries a good source of fibre?

Yes. A 100 g portion provides 5 g of fibre, making blackberries a source of fibre.
