golden berry
Husk-wrapped tart fruit
Golden berry is a small, round, yellowish-orange fruit enclosed in a papery husk, related to the tomatillo.
Also called Cape gooseberry or ground cherry, it has a sweet-tart flavor with tropical notes.
The fruit appears in jams, desserts, and salads, and is sometimes sold dried: I added golden berries to the trail mix.
