Blueberry Tips
You can use fresh or frozen blueberries interchangeably for baking. When using dehydrated blueberries, some recipes may have you soak them in water for a few minutes or until fruit "plumps"’ then drain before using. Other recipes may have already adjusted for the moisture content. Read each recipe carefully for instructions.

Storing Ripe Berries: To store ripe berries, scatter on a rimmed baking sheet lined with paper towels, then store in the fridge until you're ready to wash and eat them.

Easy Freezing Tips: Blueberries freeze well without washing. Simply put room temperature berries into ziplock bags and freeze. Rinse before using. Information courtesy of The Oregon Blueberry Growers Association.

  Roast Duck with
Blueberry Sauce

2 cups port wine
3/4 cup sugar, divided
1/4 cup honey
1 (4 to 4 1/2 lb duck, wing tips removed)
Salt
Ground black pepper
2 tbsp olive oil
1/3 cup diced shallots
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup brandy
1 cup (8 oz) fresh Gingerich Farms blueberries
1 1/2 tsps chopped fresh tarragon
2 cups duck or chicken stock

In a pot large enough to hold the duck, combine port, 2 cups water, 1/4 cup of sugar, and honey; bring to boil. Meanwhile, season duck cavity with salt and black pepper; truss duck; set aside. When wine mixture comes to a boil remove from heat. Add duck; let marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes, turning occasionally. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Remove duck from marinade; place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake until duck is brown and reaches internal temperature of 185 degrees, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Let stand at room temperature for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, heat olive oil until hot. Add shallots; cook, stirring frequently, until soft, for 3 to 5 minutes. Add remaining 1/2 cup sugar; cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until sugar is dark brown, 10 to15 minutes. Stir in vinegar, brandy, blueberries and tarragon. Cook over medium-high heat until blueberries are soft, about 5 minutes. Add stock; bring to a boil; boil until reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. To serve: Carve duck, dividing among two serving plates. Spoon blueberry sauce over duck. Garnish with fresh blueberries, carrot roses, etc. if desired. Yield: 2 servings or 1 1/2 cups sauce.
