Foodie Friday: Husk Cherry Salsa

Have you ever heard of husk cherries?  They are new to me.  They look like mini tomatillos and they are a relative.  They are cross between sweet and tart.  I tried some at the farmers market last Saturday and fell in love.  So of course I bought some and came home and made this fresh salsa.

1/2 pint husk cherries cut in half
4 small tomatoes finely chopped
1/2 red onion finely chopped
2 small cloves garlic finely diced
juice from 1/2 a lime
1 jalapeno finely chopped
salt to taste

If I had bought some cilantro I would have added some but sadly I did not.  It was sweet, a bit spicy and delish on some Silva's corn chips.  Yum!
