Physalis (also known as Inca gooseberry, Andean fruit or Cape currant) is a very fragrant exotic fruit. It is an annual plant that grows on hardy stems, with a height of one to two meters. The leaves of physalis have the shape of a heart, and the stems are velvety, with small hairs.
To eat the physalis fruit, unwrap the leaves and discard them. Enjoy the bright orange berry as is. You can decorate cakes, pastries, and muffins, throw physalis into a smoothie, or add it to a salad. For a quick, refreshing dessert, dip physalis fruits in melted chocolate.
