Physalis ixocarpa

Tomatillo's are related to gooseberries and grow in a sprawling habit with similar husks around the fruit. The taste is quite hard to describe as the flavour changes with ripeness. If picked too early they have no flavour at all, when picked green the mix and intensity of flavours is quite incredible. There are hints of light sweet gooseberry, tomato, kiwi and possibly even prickly pear in each bite. A stunning fruit that can eaten straight off the plant or turned into jam, used fresh in fruit salads and if you want to make real authentic Mexican Salsa, you have to have Tomatillo's!

Purple Tomatillos taste almost like their green cousins, but with their lovely colour, they add a bit of excitment and passion into your dishes.
