red currants
Small sour fruit
Red currants are small, tart berries that grow in clusters on a shrub native to Europe.
Bright red and translucent, they're used in jellies, sauces, and the classic accompaniment to game meats.
Their tartness makes them less common for eating fresh than for cooking: The recipe calls for a cup of red currants.
