If you like blackberries, you will like mulberries. Just remember to pick the dark purple and not the red! The darker the berry, the sweeter the taste. Pick enough to freeze for winter berry pie & a batch of Mulberry mead!

I was just introduced to mulberries this summer, and my son could never quite eat enough of them fresh to get his fill. Thinking ahead, I froze some, but didn't know what to do with them. I will be making this one! Have you any other mulberry suggestions? THANX!


I too freeze mulberries for later use- We blend in a mixer~ a handful or two frozen mulberries( destemmed)vanilla yogurt, honey and cinnamon. Top with granola. My kids love that one also with other berries mixed in. You could also do it with Vanilla ice cream.
Make them in muffins like blueberry muffins. They are a great susbstitue for many berry recipes- A little tip for the stems~ Freeze your berries on a cookie sheet and before putting them in the bag, you can run your finger over the stem and it falls off. Much easier then doing it when they are fresh.. I also have just thrown them in bag stem and all. The ones I bake with I may leave the stem on and it has not affected flavor or texture. Can not even tell they were left on.
I have not made this recipe since the time of posting, now I have to whip it up since you have me dreaming mulberries mid February...LOL
Enjoy!
