The Power of the Humble Cranberry
Mirroring the cultivation process of rice, these berries demand an inundation procedure prior to their growth. They thrive in unique ecosystems – the water-saturated bogs. Interestingly, these berries exhibit a slow maturation process, making their growth cycle an intriguing aspect of their existence.
It could potentially take up to an astonishing eighteen months! Interestingly, not every cranberry is suitable for direct consumption, as a whopping 95% possess a bitterness that’s too overpowering to be enjoyed raw. Instead, these tart berries are masterfully converted into tantalizing delicacies such as the universally beloved cranberry sauce.
