raspberries

Ellen says: Raspberries are quite aromatic and a real treat. Decadent, fragrant, sweet and tart with a burst of antioxidants, fiber (that reduces cholesterol), and Vitamin C.

Enjoy them immediately or use your evert-fresh bag. When you get berries home you should open them onto a paper towel and remove any wet ones. Make sure they are dry before storing.

Don't get them wet until you're ready to eat them. These berries also top the list of fruits with the most contamination of pesticides and therefore should only be eaten if organic. Try them topped on mascarpone cheese and honeys with hazelnuts - yum! If you don't have a chance to use them, freeze them for use later!
