Purple Tomatillo - (Physalis ixocarpa) |
|
|
I cared little whether or not I used tomatillos until I found this varitiey with its tons of large, 2-3 oz. fruits, rich and purple with clear, delicate flesh. Tangy when green, then sweet in the ripe stage, the papery husks open as the tomatillos ripen in late summer. The green as well as the mature fruits are staples in Mexican/southwestern cuisines, and are often the secret of certain salsas/sauces. Good in ratatouilles, too. Self-sterile, so plant at least two. Stores very well.
