So, I went blackberry picking this weekend, and now I have an unreasonable number of blackberries in my fridge. I made a cobbler last night – and I intend to make another – but I’ll still have a ton of blackberries left over. Any suggestions for what to do with them (besides nom them as is, which is a very real option).
Devcat is watching over, but if you notice any problems contact the editors and Devcat will be notified and deployed immediately.

Blackberry wine!Report
Smoothies.
Add rum for Daquiri version.
Always comes back to booze, no?Report
Blackberry jam! My mom used to make that when we had bushes in the yard. Best jam ever.Report
Ditto for jam.Report
Candy themReport
put them in a layer on a cookie sheet and freeze them. Put the frozen berries in freezer bags and have cobbler all winter.Report
Double ditto on the jam. If you don’t want to go to the work of buying and sterilizing jars (which isn’t that overwhelming, really), you can just stick it in the fridge and it should keep for a month at least.Report
I must agree with the commentariat: preserve them. You can steralize jars simply by putting them in the oven for a few minutes. Making jelly or Jam is rediculously easy, essentially just a matter of adding sugar and slow stewing. Turning them into jelly entails merely straining out the pulp and adding coagulant. internet search yourself some recepies and do it. You’ll be singing your own praise all winter long for just a couple of hours of work and 20 bucks worth of materials.Report
So, I decided to forgo the jam and simply freeze them, to make cobbler at a later date. Thanks for the suggestions!Report
If you’ve got a lot of spare time, I’d put in a vote for blackberry jam.Report
