How to intensify blueberry flavor? ›

Mixing a little coriander in with your blueberry desserts or pancakes will make the blueberries taste more, well, blueberry-y. And there's a scientific reason why.

Blueberries and Feta: The tartness of blueberries pairs nicely with the salty and tangy taste of feta cheese, creating a delicious contrast. Cherries and Asiago: The nutty and slightly sharp flavor of Asiago cheese can contrast nicely with the sweet and tart taste of cherries.

Typically, fresh packaged blueberries are not pre-washed, so wash them when you are ready to eat. However, frozen packaged berries can be enjoyed without washing since the high levels of acidity and sugar paired with cold temperatures make it harder for bacteria to grow.

Macerating—soaking or steeping in liquid and/or sweetener—is one of the easiest and fastest ways to doctor up sub-par berries. Toss them in sugar, honey, or maple syrup, along with a little fresh juice or alcohol (an herbal liqueur, like elderflower spirit, would be great).

Remember, rinse and dry those frozen berries before you use them; it DOES make a difference. Enjoy!
