| Strawberries ready for freezing |
updated June/24
If you're in a position to take advantage of the glut of fresh fruit which will soon be available, get ready to prepare the lower-priced berries for freezing. They will bring so much brightness in crumbles and pies winter when darkness and cold dominate.
Freeze berries in their natural state or make them into easy-peasy low-sugar jam/compotes for freezing in individual containers.
Both methods are easy-peasy but you might want to invest in equipment to make life easier: a ridged pizza pan keeps berries in rows and easily separated; a griddle pan or a plastic microwave bacon tray will do a similar job.
Low-sugar compotes and jams are simplicity itself; freezing them in tight fitting jars saves all that messing about preparing sterilised jars.
Freezing Blueberries on a cheap 'n cheerful microwave bacon tray. 'When the summer months are a memory, frugal home-frozen berries add a jewelled sparkle to crumbles, pies & cakes.'
'Astonishingly good for so little effort! I'll always prefer this to store-bought.' (with low-fat/sugar Scotch Pancakes)
