Well that got me going.  I just rooted around in the freezer and found a quart bag of black currants.  It did not look enough for a pie.  I like fruit in my fruit pies. But I also found a quart bag of gooseberries.  So a quart of black currants, a pint of gooseberries, some sugar, pinch of salt, maybe a teaspoon of cinnamon  and some flour, pilled real high (got scary near the end) into a pretty good sized pie plate, double crust so it will cook through.  (The berries are still frozen) A tray underneath it in the oven.  It will definitely run over, that is how I tell that it is cooked, by the runover…   I thought about using some orange or lemon rind in it but decided against that this time.

 

350 for an hour or so.. till done.

Black currant  pancakes and muffins.  I just dump a bunch in instead of blueberries which do not grow well here. Black currant pie sounds like a good idea also.  Sorry.. I do not recipe cook mostly.

 

Upside down cake with gooseberries and some currants for color?

The crop is coming in and I'm looking for excellent recipes for using black currant and gooseberries.  Jellies, jams, or just about anything!  Thanks.
