Gooseberries are just ripening. Whether you grow them in your garden or you bought a bag at the market, we have some delicious ideas for you on how to use them in the kitchen.
Gooseberries are often overshadowed by the more popular currants. Both fruits ripen at about the same time, depending on the variety. Gooseberries have a specific sweet-sour taste, a minimum of calories and a rich content of vitamins and minerals.
Although they are very similar to their species relatives, currants, which are popular in sweet desserts, few people consider gooseberries as fruits suitable for cakes. And that is a mistake! Green, yellow and red berries the size of grapes are a very good candidate for baking and canning.
