Preparation

Step 1

We wash the rowan berries, stems and all. Remove any debris and damaged berries.

Step 2

Pick the berries and arrange them in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. If you plan to preserve whole berries, place them in the freezer and freeze them. Then transfer them to containers for further storage.

Step 3

To freeze the puree, place the berries and sugar in a blender. Blend until smooth, tilting the blender to avoid any unprocessed berries. Adjust the amount of sweetener according to your preferences and the taste of the chokeberry.

Step 4

Transfer the puree to a container, trying to fill it almost to the top. Freeze.

Aronia in decor

Black rowan berries are ideal for decorating desserts. They are dense, hold their shape well, and don't become soggy from washing or heat, like raspberries. They can also be sprinkled on cakes or pastries while frozen.
