I notice that no one mentioned the "Chinese cherry", aka Chinese
lantern fruit, aka Physalis.
See:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physalis
Its flavor goes well with both sweet and savory
foods. Ran into them in Prague served with
venison and sweet/sour braised cabbage. Balsamic
reduction .
Alex, who's not seen them for sale here in the US.
