In terms of U.S.
fruit consumption, blueberries rank only second to strawberries in popularity
of berries. Blueberries are not only popular, but also repeatedly ranked in the
U.S. diet as having one of the highest antioxidant capacities among all fruits,
vegetables, spices and seasonings. Antioxidants are essential to optimizing
health by helping to combat the free radicals that can damage cellular
structures as well as DNA. We recommend enjoying raw blueberries — rather than
relying upon blueberries incorporated into baked desserts — because, like other
fruits, raw blueberries provide you with the best flavor and the greatest
nutritional benefits.
Blueberries retain
their maximum amount of nutrients and their maximum taste when they are enjoyed
fresh and not prepared in a cooked recipe. That is because their nutrients -
including vitamins, antioxidants, and enzymes - undergo damage when exposed to
temperatures (350°F/175°C and higher) used in baking.
That is why, we will used
blueberries in a no-bake procedure to enjoy it as a healthy dessert. First, we
need to prepare all ingredients to be used in making our blueberry cheesecake.
