Gooseberries

[anotherbanana]

Instead of doing it during the canicule I waited ‘til yesterday to have a good old sort out in the freezer, mainly to make space. Lurking towards the bottom were several plastic containers and bags of gooseberries. I had struck gold. And I havent even reached the bottom yet.

But the real question is what else to do with them; we have jam, fool (yummmmm) and tarts. And I love them cooked on yoghurt, no sugar. Does anyone have any other ideas for using them, svp?

We freeze soft fruit which doesn't spoil with freezing, when it's cheap - particularly cherries, and use it in fruit salads with whatever is in season, which we eat every day for pudding.

We don't grow any of our own in our garden, which is large, but arid and baked hard for most of the year, so that even the herbs and garrigue bushes struggle.
