Have you ever tried a goldenberry?

I had them for the first time a few years ago as the new fruit on Rosh Hashanah and I fell in love. Usually, the new fruits on Rosh Hashanah are either beautiful and flavorless (aka dragon fruit) or it’s something very interesting that you don’t necessarily plan on having again. But, I was so pleasantly surprised when I tried it and loved it!

Goldenberries are in season now and I just bought a container to munch on as a Shabbat treat. They are sweet and slightly tangy and look like little orange grape tomatoes. I was very excited to see that we even have a chicken recipe using them! They are super healthy and may help boost your immune system, which we all need now that winter is approaching. 

Happy cooking!

This dish tastes kind of like a stir-fry – minus the meat or chicken, but more importantly, minus the frying, the pan to wash, and the standing over the stove!
