      Dried testicles which we harvest from pigs in the cold winter months. We eat them with Sauerkraut.

      Rote Stachelbeere. Red. Also exists in green. Great as a jam, you can find Stachelbeerkonfitüre in bigger stores, I love it but that may be bc my grandma made it herself when I was a kid. They have lots of pectine so it doesnt need as much sugar as other jams. I totally plan on buying Stachelbeere bushes if I ever have a garden.

      Stachelbeere. European gooseberry in English. I think it is related to redcurrants.

      Ask on reddit about a “German fruit” (it’s neither a fruit nor it is German): yes

    5. It is a gooseberry, and they’re not exclusively German. They’re quite tart, but as a child I often had them stewed, or in a crumble, or made into jam.

      In traditional British folklore, young children were often told that babies are found under gooseberry bushes (an alternative to being brought by a stork). Also, “playing gooseberry” used to be the British equivalent of “being a third wheel”: that is, in a group of three the person left hanging around awkwardly while the other two are trying to hook up.

      Man I love gooseberries (probably my favorite fruit), very similar taste to a tart kiwifruit (kiwis were originally called chinese gooseberries for a reason). Sadly seems it hasn’t been a good year for them (rather expensive).

      Why they aren’t more popular globally is a mystery to me, admittedly germany has some much better / more advanced genetics/cultivars than elsewhere.
