I have this amazing black berry patch that I was picking this summer. But for one reason or another, I didn't get to go pick enough and I don't have ANY put up for the winter. But I _know_ that there are a lot of dried berries still on the vine at my spot.
So here's my question- If I go and pick all those dried up berries- will they reconstitute into edible berries or is there flavor and goodness shot?
Thanks!

Oh no  Sad to say the berry is done and to try and resurrect an already dead berry won't do much but take up freezer space and waste you time.

I think once they dry on the vine, they've put their all into the seeds. You could try if you pass by some, but I wouldn't drive off to go give it a try. Rose hips are ripe now, and elderberries, and there are other harvests to move on to. :) There's always next year. Maybe you can make some fruit leather with apples and a package of berries from the store? Give you that summer taste.
We make a difference. |

I think the flavor is long gone. They are just dried up berries - best left for the birds.
