Tomatillos

Check out these tomatillos.  They look like little lanterns.  
 
When they first set, (you can see one all the way to the right)  they are empty.  If you squeeze them, they feel like little balloons.  As they grow they fill up the lantern with a little tomato-like berry.  Then the skin splits, and you know they are ready to pick.
 
One year we had a huge harvest, and we made salsa verde.  We also like to skewer them, and cook them for a few minutes on the grill.  They are so sweet and delicious!!!  I ordered new seeds for next year:  Yellow ones.  I'm excited.
 
HAPPY GARDENING!!!
