A) Any advice on how to?

Pretty sour and inedible raw, but obviously heat and sugar transform them into a nice pud. 

Tbh I would say it is a tree to have if you have room, but you could get far more cooking fruit in less space from a cultivated blackberry or a boysenberry trained along posts and wires.
