Main problem is top & tailing the berries rather than making the pie.
Deep freezing and then rubbing the bits off is easier than manually
snipping away at fresh berries. YMMV


I might be wrong but are you thinking of blackcurrants? I pick the
blackberries (I call them brambles) clean.


Do you? Whenever I've picked blackberries they've always had a stem and
middle bit, unlike raspberries, which pick nicely!


Oh yes! The ones I have picked come off clean the same as raspberries.
