I was looking for pomegranate seeds in Morrisons, to make a Waitrose recipe for crunchy rhubarb after a previous shopping trip to Waitrose. In Morrisons I ending up buying a fresh pomegranate and was pleasantly surprised to find that pomegranates, which I had not previously liked, provided lovely seeds when mixed with other soft cooked fruit. But while looking for the pomegranate seeds on the nuts and seeds rack I discovered goji berries.
The goji berries were small pink things the size of a pumpkin seed, or your little fingernail if you are petite. I wanted to try something new.
I was confusing the unfamiliar name. I thought I was buying berries which supposedly helped slimming, which I'd read touted as a miracle food. Later I'd read that when you sent off for them at inflated prices to foreign countries you did not receive any goods, so I had never ordered.
When I went on line to find out about Goji berries I discovered my mistake.
Meanwhile I'll tell you about the Goji berries in this post.
They taste like salty sultanas.
Eat neat, probably better. We also tried them in porridge.
I'll buy Acai berries next and report on that later.
