Mixed berries
Used in 2 recipes on RecipeWiki.
Mixed berries on this page means blueberries and raspberries together, used as a fresh topping. Raspberries are soft, sharp and fragrant; blueberries are firmer, milder and sweeter, popping when bitten. Together they give colour and a fresh acidity against something rich and warm, which is their job on Creamy Oat Porridge and French Toast. Do not wash raspberries until just before serving, because they absorb water and collapse. Rinse blueberries gently and dry them. Spread out any berries you buy and pick over them, since one mouldy fruit spreads quickly. Frozen berries work if thawed, but they release a lot of juice.
