BLUEBERRIES - Kosher/Gluten Free

BLUE-5

Description:

These delicious berries grow on bushes, both cultivated and in the wild. Although wild Blueberries are smaller and a much more expensive favorite of gourmet cooks, it is the cultivated berries that make their way into the foodservice industry. Dried Blueberries retain their delicate, sweet flavor and allow usage when seasonal harvests are over. Blueberries contain antioxidants that have been found to reduce the risks of certain cancers. It has also been suggested that Blueberries are significant for reducing the degradation of brain function as well as lowering stroke damage in animals. Additional studies have found that Blueberries have health benefits such as lowering cholesterol and lipid levels in the blood as well as increasing night vision.  The amazing blueberry is full of health benefits for all!

Use Blueberries in baked goods, jams, jellies, as a garnish, in salads, sauces, stuffings, trail mixes, hot cereals, muffins, pancakes, scones, fruit cakes, and for homemade ice cream. Dried Blueberries may be eaten right out of the bag as a healthy treat.

Recommended Preparation Instructions:

There is no preparation needed for dried fruit. If used in baking, you may want to rehydrate. To rehydrate dried fruit, pour boiling water over the fruit and let sit covered for 5 to 10 minutes. Drain well before using it.
