Fresh mulberries are delicate and should ideally be eaten within two to three days after harvesting. Store them in a shallow container lined with paper towels inside the refrigerator.
For longer storage, freeze the berries in a single layer on a baking tray before transferring them to freezer bags. Frozen mulberries maintain much of their flavor and nutritional value for several months.
Dried mulberries are another excellent option and can be stored in airtight containers in a cool, dry place for several months.
Tips
- Harvest only fully ripe berries for maximum sweetness.
- Shake the tree gently over a clean sheet to collect ripe fruit.
- Avoid washing berries until you’re ready to eat them.
- Mulberries stain clothing easily, so wear old clothes during harvesting.
- Freeze surplus berries immediately after picking.
- Mix mulberries with yogurt, oatmeal, or smoothies for a nutritious breakfast.
- Use them as a topping for pancakes, waffles, or cheesecake.
