Overview

"Round and diminutive, huckleberries are a member of the Vaccinium genus, which also encompasses cranberries and blueberries. They originated in North America and now inhabit a wide range of habitats, from mountainous terrain to acidic soils and woods. Famous for their tart and sweet taste, huckleberries find many uses in the kitchen, including jams, jellies, pies, and sweets. There are a number of different kinds of huckleberries, and each one has its own unique look. In appearance, huckleberries are typically diminutive fruits that can be any shade of red, blue, purple, or even black. On top of being tasty, they're healthy thanks to the abundance of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals in them. Foraging for huckleberries in the wild is a fun and popular outdoor pastime in some parts of the world. Huckleberries are also grown for commercial purposes and sold in markets in certain regions. Note that the term ""huckleberry"" can be used in a colloquial sense to describe something that is slightly out of one's grasp or a little, charming person. For example, Doc Holliday famously said, ""I'm your huckleberry,"" in the film ""Tombstone."""
