Globally known by many different names depending on region. Generally labeled as Husk cherries, Ground cherries, or Lantern berries. They get the name "ground cherry" because the fruits fall to the earth when ripe.
Ground cherries are suited for both raw and cooked. The berries, with the husk discarded, can be consumed fresh, out-of-hand, sliced and tossed into salads, chopped into salsas, or they can be dipped in chocolate and eaten as a dessert or snack. Husk Tomato berries can also be boiled and cooked into preserves, jams, and spreads, pureed into sauces, or baked into tarts, pies, and cakes. The berries have a unique sweet-tart flavor, making them as complex as they are versatile.
Ground cherries are an excellent source of vitamin C, which is an antioxidant that can help protect and boost the immune system. The berries also contain some calcium, vitamin A, fiber, phosphorus, and iron.
