Blueberries are a delicious and healthy fruit enjoyed by many, but they often come with dirt and pesticide residues that need to be removed.
Washing them properly is essential to ensure they are safe to eat and taste their best.
Start by placing your blueberries in a colander. Hold the colander under cold running water, gently tossing the berries with your hands
Allow the water to flow over the berries for a minute or two, ensuring each berry is thoroughly rinsed.
Avoid using hot water as it may damage the delicate skin. This simple method is often sufficient for removing visible dirt and light pesticide residues.
Create a solution using one part white vinegar and three parts water. Place the blueberries in the mixture and let them soak for about five minutes.
