9 Nasty Truths About Your Favorite Foods
Famous Death Row Last Meals
I got up this morning, picked up a friend and drove about 40 minutes into New Jersey to go blueberry picking. It's gotten sort of late in the season, so the picking was a little bit more challenging than it can be when the bushes heavy with fruit, but still managed to come away with a respectable amount of berries for an hour's worth of labor.
Just about every summer for the last 15, I have picked blueberries. Normally I do it in Portland with my parents, and my mom turns the bulk of the berries into jam. I've always been totally content with eating bowl after bowl of blueberries, as if they were popcorn, without a thought given to making something more refined or lasting with them. This time, since I have about 5 pounds of berries all to myself, I'm thinking I should try to incorporate them into a few recipes, because if I attempt to eat the full 5 pounds before they threaten to go bad, I may make myself sick.
So I'm asking you, knowledge Slashfood readers, what are your favorite blueberry recipes? Leave them in the comments, I will do my best to make one or two of them and let you know how they turn out.
