Put the Mulberries in a jar, where they cant stain anything.
If you dont remember seeing a mulberry tree youve probably noticed the deep purple mess it leaves on sidewalks. The debate continues over the mulberry tree. Is its fruit friend or foe? Mulberry trees liter the ground and your driveway, car, shoes, and anything that comes near, across yards nationwide. The fruit falls whether its ready or not, and doesnt really taste ripe until its final few weeks. When it gets around to ripening watch out plump juicy black berries will bombard your lawn every time the wind blows. The berries are sweet mild tasting fruit that gel nicely with some lemon. Collect and jam them saving your lawn from the purple scourge and make something tasty for your toast.

Mulberry Preserves
1.5 lb mulberries
1 lemon and zest
3/4 cup sugar
Rinse berries thoroughly and remove stems. Mulberries have unfortunate short stubby stems that dont come off too easily. I found I had to pinch them at the base to remove, which often resulted in berry splatter. Where an apron when you do this.
Bring berries, sugar, lemon juice, and half the lemons zests to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer for 30-40 minutes stirring occasionally. Mulberries are also loaded with seeds, but they float on top of the pan. Scoop them up and throw away as you watch the fruit reduce. Preserves will be ready when the mulberries have thickening more than half. Stir in remaining lemon zest and remove from heat. Cool and store in a glass container, or can it in mason jars.

Caught red-handed picking mulberries
