I use this on my carrot and celery sticks

The salt helps the ranch stick to the sticks.

Is it served like that or is this photo taken after a few bites have been taken out of what I assume to be a burrito?

It's like these kumquats bought their leaves at a second hand store

Edit: Oh wow, I've always thought these were kumquats but they are Physalis peruviana, AKA as Cape gooseberry or goldenberry

This is like the totally standard way those fruits are served. Pick it up by the leaves and pluck the fruit out with your teeth or hands. Don't eat the leaves.

man you go through life marvelling at how we all share similar experiences and then one day you come across an enclave that has never seen physalis before :v:

They're all over the place around my parts, they're tasty and they're a way to visually spruce up a dessert with their fancy little leaves on. Which are dry and papery and discarded, but do make for a nice handle, for example.

The farmers markets are just piled with em in early fall and I will eat myself silly once every year and not want to see another leaf husk again. Around here they're known as ground cherries.

They are extremely good, but you can actually take the leaves off to serve them without losing any flavor/longevity. Which I would do if I were a restaurant!

yeah, tomatillos are much closer related to gooseberries than they are to tomatoes.

Ground cherries are easy as breathing to grow. I always have some kicking around in my garden and green house. You can probably grow them in your yard on accident if you throw some out the backdoor.

If you do grow them you'll spend roughly 30 minutes a day every day stuffing fruit in your face while you pretend to be picking them to bring inside. You will get sick, it will be worth it.

My Great-Aunt made an amazing Gooseberry Cobbler and I think half the recipe was "let's get some loving peace and quiet by sending the kids out to pick berries."

Gooseberrier are close related to black and red currants, they’re both in the genus Ribes and grow on thorny bushes.

Tomatillo and cape gooseberries are both in the genus Physalis and grow on vines. They are related to potatoes, tomatoes and peppers.

Look I don't know why you would grow berries in your yard if you didn't want to also eat them randomly off the bush.

We always had raspberries in the yard but very rarely did we do more than snack on them.

The dog ate everything below waist height anyway. She liked raspberries too.
