Has an interesting but likeable flavor - not sure what I can compare it to. We ate them off the plant, and Grandma made preserves out of them. I don't recal that she made them into pies as this vid suggests, but she did make pies out of a mix of the stuff that grew there, so she may have included them in that concoction.. ;-)
They (like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, eggplant) are members of the Nightshade family, so don't eat the green parts... ;-)
Hey, it was Grandma's pie. It was always good. You never asked what was in it...
Ah. Thanks! My mother, rest her soul, said they were poison...and they grew wild where we were.
She would have canned them, had she known, and most likely made pie!
