A few weeks ago I became aware of a New York Times article by Harold McGee titled Prolonging the Life of Berries. The article outlined a way to make berries last longer by giving them a hot bath. Since a good amount of my grocery bill goes toward berries, and I often throw away as many berries as I eat, I'm all for doing something to make them last longer. So, I followed the directions and documented the process. Let's see how long my berries will last this time. To start, spread all the berries out on a towel or paper towel:

Then, heat up some water to 140 degrees (there are different instructions for strawberries, raspberries and blackberries in the original article by Harold McGee.)

I used a thermometer to test the water.

. . . Keep the berries in hot water for 30 seconds then take them out and lay them on the towel again, then put them in the refrigerator.

. . . . . .

Notice how the berries lose their white waxy covering after the hot bath? According to Harold McGee's article, this is to be expected. Ideally, your berries will last longer which means you save time and money and get to enjoy eating more berries than usual.
