New books aid in identifying and preparing wild fruits and berries- By SYLVIA ANDERSONSt. Joseph News-Presst may seem shocking to some, but before grocery stores and drive-through food chains, people were able to eat off the land. And to a degree, you still can - if you know what you're doing.Fruits and berries grow wild everywhere, but most of us don't know which ones are safe to eat and what to do with them when we do find them. That's why Teresa Marone decided to write "The Illinois, Iowa and Missouri Wild Berries and Fruits Field Guide " She has been gathering and preparing wild edibles for more than 20 years and isthe author of numerous outdoors-related cookbooks. Her field guide categorizes each fruit species as toxic (poisonous), not edible, edible or delicious, so you know which berries to pick and which to leave. Her companion cookbook, "Get Cooking with Wild Berries and Fruits of Illinois, Iowa and Missouri," provides more than 175 recipes using the region's edible berries and fruits. We caught up with her recently while she was hunting for berries in southern Ohio. Here's an excerpt fromher interview with the News-Press. Q Where are good places to pick wild fruits and berries in Northwest Missouri and Northeast Kansas?A. Most state and national parks will allow picking of berries and fruits for immediate consumption, but not for commercial use - such as selling at a farmer's market. In general, one needs to check with local authorities to be sureit is legal to harvest wild berries and fruits. Local parks often have walking paths that go through wooded areas, and as long as the park doesn't spray for weeds and has no restrictions about picking, these can be great places for berries. Rural areas can be excellent, but one always has to ask permission from the landowner before entering the land and picking. I often pick around office parks in the outer suburbs, because these often have shelterbelts of trees, shrubs and native vegetation left for visual appeal; no one ever seems to care if I pick wild berries in these places. Sometimes, I've even found edible wild fruits in boulevard strips or on fences surrounding shopping malls, lumberyards and places like that.O. What berries are in season now or are coming up?A. I'm seeing ripe elderberries all over the place right now in Ohio, which is pretty similar to your area; blackberries are also starting to ripen right now and purple-flowering raspberry are still producing. Other fruits that are ripe right now - or very quickly - include gooseberries, ground cherries, plums, chokecherries,wild pears, mayapples, maypops (the fruit of the passionflower vine), crab apples and pawpaws. Grapes and blackhaw ripen in late summer to early fall. Persimmon ripen much later in the fall but are truly wonderful.Q. How should they be stored if you can't cook something right away?A. Most wild berries and fruits are fairly perishable. Whole berries that have no hard pits, such as blackberries, blueberries, ground cherries and gooseberries, can be frozen on a baking sheet in a single layer then packed into freezer bags or container until needed. Berries that have hard pits, such as chokecherries or black cherries, should be juiced or processed into pulp; then the juice or pulp can be frozen or canned until needed. Pawpaws can be mashed and frozen raw. Crab apples and wild pears can be cut up or cooked into sauce (like applesauce) and then canned or frozen. In addition, many wild berries and fruits make excellent fruit leathers; simply puree, then spread on a sheet and dehydrate in a dehydrator or a very low oven.
