How to Choose Good, Sweet Ingredients
How to choose good blueberries
- You should choose firm, dry blueberries that are blue. Avoid red or green ones.
- Before buying, check the bottom of the container for any cracked or leaking berries; if there are, those are spoiled and not good.
How to choose fresh and delicious cherries
- You should choose dark red, deeper colored fruits because fresh fruits with lighter skins preserved with chemicals are not good for health.
- Pay attention to the stem, which should still be bright green.
- Use your hand to squeeze the fruit; if the cherry feels firm and not mushy, it is good.
- The surface should be smooth, not rough.
