How to Choose and Store Fresh Blueberries for Maximum Freshness

When choosing fresh blueberries, look for firm, plump berries with a vibrant, deep blue color and a silver bloom.

Avoid blueberries with wrinkles, soft spots, or any signs of mold, as these indicate age or damage.

Choose organic blueberries when possible to reduce exposure to harmful pesticides and chemicals.

Opt for a container that has minimal crushed berries, as excess pressure can cause premature spoiling.

Store fresh blueberries in the refrigerator to keep them cold and maintain their freshness for up to a week.

Avoid washing blueberries until you're ready to use them, as moisture can encourage mold growth and spoilage.

If you have excess blueberries, freeze them by spreading them on a baking sheet and then transferring to a container.

To extend shelf life, store blueberries in a breathable container with a lid to allow for air circulation.
