I found one of these lovelies garnishing my plate at Auberge des falaises in Malbaie, Quebec. "groundcherries" is what the waiter called them. They taste like a very sweet tomato, but grow like a Mexican Tomatillo. I picked these up at a farmer's market in Tucson where they were called Peruvian Poha berries. Whatever the name, they are quite colorful on the plate and apparently make a great tart. If I can find them again after the weather is more tolerable for baking I will give it a try.
