About Blueberries, wild, raw (Alaska Native)
The Alaska blueberry, also known as the early blueberry or oval-leaf blueberry, is a wild shrub of the cool, damp forests along the Pacific coast from Alaska down through the Northwest. It bears small, deep blue-black berries with a soft whitish bloom that ripen through summer and rank among the most beloved of the wild blueberries, sweet with a pleasant tart edge and packed with flavor. Long a cherished food for the Indigenous peoples of the region, the berries are eaten fresh by the handful, baked into pies and muffins, cooked into jams and syrups, or dried for winter, and they feed bears, birds, and other wildlife too.
Like all blueberries, they are rich in fiber, vitamin C, manganese, and the deep-blue antioxidant anthocyanins. Their intense wild flavor outshines many cultivated berries. Gather plump, fully colored berries that come away easily from the bush, refrigerate them and use within a few days, or freeze them spread on a tray to keep them loose.
