  • I wish I could send you some to taste.:)))))))

  • First time I see this. Thank you for sharing, Inna.

  • Farroq, don't they grow in Turkey?

  • Oh Yes... I didnt have a look at the leaves.. Then, It must be something different which we dont get it here..... Thanks Inna for clarifying me..

  • Indian gooseberry is something different. I guess it was called so by Europeans because the berries look alike. But if you look at the leaves you'll notice that there is no resemblance.

  • We call it "Amla"... and it has high medicinal properties.  My day starts with "Amla Juice"... It tastes sour without sugar.  Amla Pickles are also famous.  It is available in all Vegetable Shops here in South India.  Please do visit this site to know more about it... One Amla is equal to One Apple, we say.... Though it was cheaper some days back, now its price also increasing for its medicinal uses.

  • I guess they are grown in Asia, too, but in not in the south.

  • Is it in Asia?.. I can't see them in my country... hope it's taste may similar to cherry..

  • Actually you'll never see those gooseberries in shops, in markets only where country women sell them. Though they are grown by almost every gardener. That is because they are difficult to keep. We usually eat them half-ripe. As those berries ripen their peel and the seeds within become hard though they taste sweeter. They become whitish or reddish in colour or stay green depending on the sort. Fully ripe gooseberries are semi-transparent.2389695334?profile=original
