This has been a pretty good year for sloes,
they have a lot more flesh on them,
and,
some are edible from the tree as of now.
You can mimic the '1st frost' effect,
(of cell membrane damage leading to softening of the flesh rather than full ripening),
by putting a bagful in the freezer for a couple of days.
