10 Common Mistakes People Make with Blueberries

Storing blueberries in the fridge too early can lead to sogginess. Wait until they are fully ripe before refrigerating them for longer shelf life.

Washing blueberries before storing can cause them to spoil faster. Only wash them right before you're ready to eat or use them.

Keeping blueberries in their original packaging can trap moisture. Opt for a breathable container to help prevent mold growth.

Buying pre-packed blueberries may lead to unripe or spoiled fruit. It's best to buy loose blueberries for better selection and freshness.

Overloading your blender with blueberries can result in a lumpy smoothie. Add a balance of other fruits or liquid to blend smoothly.

Discarding slightly overripe blueberries is a mistake. They can still be used in baking or smoothies, and the taste can be just as good.

Using blueberries in overly sweet recipes can mask their natural flavor. Try to balance the sweetness with other ingredients to enhance their taste.
