Description:
(Please note: Mulberries will be wet when you receive them. They are purely an ingredient berry. Do not expect them to look like nice, dry Blackberries. Be ready for lots of juice in the bottom of the clamshell!) Native to western Asia, Black Mullberries are precious, both in availability and price. While they look like large blackberries, Mulberries have a wonderful, unique flavor. We know when to bow to an expert…We will let Alice Waters speak for us (from Chez Panisse fruit): ” Mulberries are wonderful…capture their essence…(by using) their juice in a dessert soup, with sliced fresh summer fruit. The sweet tartness of mulberries is good with peaches and nectarines, and we put them together in tarts and cobblers…The strong flavor of mulberries is beautifully tempered when they are served simply with sabayon or cream, and they make our best ice cream.” Our grower has planted Mulberries in Southern California, and harvests them ripe and delivers them to us the very same day. Be aware that these very perishable berries will arrive to you wet, with a whole lot of juice in the bottom of the container…Testament to their ripe and juicy character!
