About Groseille à maquereau

Groseille à maquereau is the French name for gooseberry, a small round or oval berry that may be green, yellow, red, or purple depending on variety and ripeness. Many varieties have fine hairs or a slightly fuzzy skin. The juicy flesh surrounds small edible seeds and ranges from sharply tart when underripe to softer and sweeter when ripe.

Gooseberries are used fresh, cooked, or preserved, including in sauces, compotes, jams, and baked foods. They are commonly sold whole and may be topped and tailed before cooking. This ingredient is distinct from groseille, which in French usually refers to redcurrant; colour and ripeness make a notable difference to the flavour of gooseberries.
