View Full Version : Blueberry recipes needed
I've bought myself a blueberry bush, and soon I'll get another one so that they pollinate properly and produce lots of lovely fruit.
So, apart from blueberry muffins, does anyone have any interesting recipe ideas that I can use blueberries with?

Oola, I have a nice recipe for blueberry poppyseed cake. The birds just LOVE the blueberries though, so you'll probably need nets. I tried to grow them once, but could never beat the birds to the bushes!. The poppyseeds are optional, they always look so attractive stuck between the teeth lol. And, (here's a bit of interesting/useless info. poppyseeds can show up in blood tests as drugs).
Can they really? Is it because they come from opium poppies or something?
I would love to have the recipe keepersdaughter. Could you stick it in the recipes section for me?

Oola, I'm actually sitting here trying to post it. I'm trying to work out correct conversions. I figured it out in my head, checked a conversion thing on line and it's way off. I'll try again later, maybe after a jolt of coffee to help me think straight :o . Yes, the poppyseed thing. OH will never eat anything with them in or on. He's a pilot and they do random drug screening and he said they can show up (oppiates I suppose from poppies?).

Blueberry Jam. I followed a blackcurrant recipe.
They freeze really well, so if you only harvest a few at a time you can keep them until you have enough. I am still waiting for mine to give me a decent enough crop.
