Shelf Life Tips

• Place gooseberries loosely in a shallow container, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
• Do not wash gooseberries until ready to eat, as excess moisture during storage will hasten decay.
• To freeze: (1) Wash berries carefully in cold water, pat dry and place in a single layer on cookie tray in freezer; (2) Once berries are frozen, transfer to airtight containers or heavy-duty freezer bags and return to freezer.
• Freezer time shown is for best quality only - foods kept constantly frozen at 0°F will keep safe indefinitely.
