Fruit
Flesh
Mulberry flesh is the juicy, clustered pulp of the fruit—the part that becomes jam, syrup, ice cream, and pie filling. Colour runs from pale to deep purple-black; flavour is sweet with mild tartness in darker types. Seeds are tiny and usually eaten with the flesh. Crush for juice and sauces; strain only if a seedless gel is wanted. Freeze purée in portions. Pair with cream, yoghurt, lemon, and baking spices.
