In “A Burst of Berry this Winter” (Edible Portland, Winter 2009) Janie Hibler shares her favorite ways to use frozen Oregon berries all winter long. Don’t worry if your freezer isn’t filled with frozen strawberries, blueberries or raspberries — 95% of Oregon’s berries are grown for the frozen food market. Our featured video this season gives us an inside look at one of the many local processors that freezes berries using the IQF (individually quick frozen) method.
Thanks to a partnership with a local film company that produces Cooking Up A Story, a show about real people and their special connections to food and sustainable living, we’re able to bring Edible Portland stories to life in video format. Cooking Up A Story’s work is shot unscripted, and the stories are told in the voice of the subject.
