Word of the day: chuckleberry
A chuckleberry is a hybrid between a redcurrant, gooseberry and jostaberry (a jostaberry already being a hybrid of a gooseberry and blackcurrant).This large mix of different flavour profiles has resulted in a dark red/purple fruit around the size of a blackcurrant, with a complex, yet delicious taste.
It provides vibrancy and sharpness to cooking, whilst simultaneously being sweet – making it an incredibly exciting ingredient to use.
