Mulberries, 6 cups, picked minutes before
Lemon Juice, 2 tablespoons

Allspice, half teaspoon
Vanilla Extract, quarter teaspoon
Two pie crusts
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wash mulberries and remove very unripe berries. Stir vinegar and lemon juice together with mulberries. Stir in cornstarch. Add sugar, spices, and vanilla, stir together.

I should say that I have made this pie and it was well liked by the test audience. However, I'm avidly watching the responses. Not all tastes are the same.

My mulberries come from trees. I wish I had been here when they came up and I could have pruned them into bushes...

It sounds good, but I would suggest using either vinegar or lemon juice, not both. My opinion is that you should never use tapioca and I would add another 1/4 cup sugar because mulberries are a little tart and I like fruit pies to be sweet. I would also suggest buttering the top of the fruit before adding the top crust and then add an egg wash and dust with cinnamon sugar before baking. After turning the temp down, the time should be about 35 minutes.
A few variations to this:
1. Add rhubarb with the mulberries. The two flavors meld very well in a pie.
2. If you like blueberries, you could make a mul-blueberry pie too (that's the only way I like blueberries at all).
I have never had fresh mulberries, so I hope you enjoy it!

It sounds pretty good to me, but I'd only use the lemon juice and no cider vinegar. And the corn starch will distribute better if you first mix that into the sugar. Should you dot the top of the filling with a few teaspoons of butter before putting the top crust on?
Enjoy your fresh mulberries. I haven't had them in years!

I shall let you know when I have tried your recipe! ! Mercy, I thought everyone knew what mulberries were? Don't they sing that song any more in kindergarten? "Here we go round the mulberry bush, the mulberry bush......"

It sounds very interesting. But I have no idea what mulberries are.

Not very good. Something about the combination of ingredients that doesn't sound good. Is this some kind of a harvest pie?
And if you wrote this recipe you should learn how to adequately write them. This way is hard to read.
