Ground Cherries

When your CSA gives you Ground Cherries...you freak out and ask your co-worker (former Miss Vermont Agriculture) a. what they are and b. what you do with them.

They are similar to a tomatillo, but more pineapple-y and have the texture of a tomato. I made tarts with them...I didn't take the second photo.

I thought these ground cherries springing up in between our tomatoes were weeds and pulled them out!!!! Sad they are beautiful and I hear tasty!
