Raspberries

More summer fruit!

Fresh red raspberries should look dry, plump, and bright; stems mean they were picked too soon. These berries spoil quickly so eat them as fast as you can. To preserve, rinse gently, place berries in waxed paper in a single layer, freeze until solid, and transfer to zip-top bags.

FOOD TIPS
Stir fresh or frozen raspberries into muffin or quick-bread batters. When making ice cubes, drop raspberries into the trays for a color and flavor boost.

Add raspberries to a salad of arugula, slivered radicchio, and butter lettuce. Toss with balsamic vinaigrette and top with chopped walnuts.
