To enjoy these raspberries, gently rinse them under cool water just before use. Pat them dry with a soft towel. They can be eaten fresh as a snack or incorporated into recipes. For baking, they can be folded into batters or used as a topping. They also lend themselves well to making jams, compotes, or coulis. Their natural sweetness and slight tang make them a wonderful contrast in many dishes.
