SO FRESH!

We checked around the Web and found some tips for keeping your berries fresh:

• Place in a bowl and wash in a vinegar-water bath (1 cup of white vinegar + 8 cups of water.)

• Drain and rinse berries.

• Thicker skinned fruit (strawberries or blueberries) can be dried in a salad spinner.

• Delicate berries (raspberries and blackberries) should be patted dry with paper towels.

• Store fruit in a sealed container, lined with paper towels. Leave lid slightly open to avoid moisture build-up.
