Description
Organic Inca berries, also known as Golden berries, have a particular sweet and sour taste and are a great snack that can be eaten fresh or dried. Inca berry is the fruit of Physalis peruviana, a South American plant native to Peru and Colombia. It is a round, smooth berry, resembling a miniature yellow tomato. Removed from its calyx, it is bright yellow to orange in color, and sweet when ripe, with a characteristic, mildly tart grape-like tropical flavour. Boasting an impressive amount of health benefits, they are high in fibre, vitamins, minerals and beneficial plant compounds called antioxidants. Inca berries have high amounts of beta-carotene, vitamin K and vitamin C along with a little calcium.
How to Use
Inca berries can be used in various ways. You can add them to salads, use them in baking, blend them into smoothies or even make your own Inca berry jam. At Little Plant Pantry, we make a seasonal Inca berries & Apple Kombucha with them.
