Blackberry, 6oz

To store blackberries, put them in a shallow container and place them in a cool spot or in the refrigerator as soon as you can after picking. Fresh blackberries are very perishable and should be eaten or frozen within 5-7 days

The sweet-tart flavor and earthy quality of Blackberries allows them to be used in both sweet and savory applications. The moderately high acidity of Blackberries cuts through the rich flavors of creamy and aged cheeses, or rich fatty meats. Blackberries can be added to ice creams, jams and baked goods. Blackberries also pair well with nuts, aged balsamic vinegar, salad greens, figs, and leafy herbs. Blackberries are a great addition to breakfast. Include them on yogurt, smoothies or as a filling in fresh fruit crepes.
Include blackberries on salads and as part of a fruit side dish. Or dessert, blackberry cobbler or blackberry applesauce

Blackberries are a good source of vitamins A and C, iron, calcium, manganese and high in fiber and dietary fiber. Blackberries get their dark purple pigmentation from the phytonutrient anthocyanin, which also has antioxidant properties.
