Our delicious red raspberries keep the taste of summer going as the strawberries are ending for the year. Stop by in mid-July and you may be able to get both the end of the strawberries and the start of the raspberries. We have raspberries generally until early August.
Ask anyone...raspberries are not the most fun thing to pick. However, the delectable taste is more than reward enough for risking your hands and arms in the thorny brambles for this delicious treat!
Select raspberries that are unblemished dry, in an unstained container. Raspberries should be medium to bright red, depending on the variety. Moisture will increase spoilage, so the berries themselves should be relatively dry. Shelf life for raspberries is short, and they should be consumed within 2-3 days of purchase. Eat at room temperature for fullest flavor.
The most delicate of the berry family, raspberries have a similar structure to blackberries but have a hollow core. Therefore, this fruit requires delicate handling during preparation. Red raspberries are the most common type but there are also golden, amber, and purple berries all similar in taste and texture.
