How Do You Hull a Blackberry? (5 Steps)

When preparing blackberries for eating, you might want to hull the berries by removing their tough core. Raspberries have a hollow look since they leave behind their hull (core) on the plant when picked, but blackberries, which look like black raspberries, still contain their inner core after picking, especially if they have been picked while still young and tart. Though edible, you might want to remove this hull when making a dish requiring only the juicy berry flavor without the crunch of the inner core.
