Blueberries

The Dales Chef

Friday, 22 August 2025 - 9 minutes

They are at the peak of the season right now - English Blueberries.  Sweet little berries packed with greatness and a true superfood.

Bruce talks about the difference between Blueberries and Bilberries, their North American origins and did you know it's the only true blue fruit?

So versitile are Blueberries - on pancakes, in muffins, as a compot or over a cheesecake, Bruce covers the lot and more!  

There's a summer treat for the kids in making and enjoying their own Bluebery Lollies!  Plus fun facts.
