Yes, it's a variant of Physalis
Aren't those physalis?
That's fast, thanks you
Apparently tomatillo is a type of these. Tomatillo sauce is the green salsa I see a lot on Mexican dishes. Good stuff, highly recommended
Physalis is how ive always known it but i recently found out that tomatillos are a related species, used in a bunch of Mexican dishes.
I'm In South Carolina, U.S and I call them ground cherries, though I've heard others around here call them goldenberries
We call them gooseberries here in australia
It taste kinda sweet and sour
You forgot delicious. Easily one of my favorite fruits.
Yeah it's pretty good, it kinda similar to cherry tomato but better
the gooseberry I recently had tasted like a mix of a tomato and an orange, it's a very peculiar flavor and even that description I feel doesn't quite match what I tasted
Not sure if it's the same thing but we call it lantern fruit because it looks like chinese lantern
Physalis or inca berry?
Thanks you, I search your answer and it seem it's a variant of Physalis
