I bought some freeze-dried blueberries at the suggestion of someone
here - TJ's had them. Today, I was out of fresh ones so I tried them in
my usual fruit-and-almond butter breakfast. Even after sitting for a
few minutes, they were like corn puffs in texture. We put some others
into warm water, and they were softer but still crunchy after 15-20
minutes.

The package contains no reconstitution instructions - what am I missing
here?

Thanks in advance.

What you're missing is that the recommendation came from clueless AOL newbie
Sheldon "Pussy" Katz, and is therefore worthless.

Heh! You can rehydrate them in expensive blueberry juice. I have
been thinking about freeze-dried fruit, mainly because I can't
find unsweetened dried cranberries.

What about soaking them in plain water to remove some of the sugar?

I dunno. With me, it's kind-of all or nothing.
