Without a kitchen scale, measure ¾ cup + 1 tbsp (12.97 tablespoons total) using loose fill technique. Pour dry fresh berries loosely into the cup until flush with the rim. Do not press or crush the berries; standard cultivated round blueberries roll into a natural loose pack weighing 148 grams per cup.
