I planted a white currant bush last year and this year it gave me a couple of handfuls. They have a fresh taste like a green grape but a bit more tart. I’m in the process of drying them now so I can use them to make some currant scones

    These are delicious. I had never tried currants until I found some for sale in the Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia. I read that currants were illegal in USA for a while because they spread a white pine disease, but for whatever reason are now legal again (as of like 10+ years ago)
