Tomatillo
Looks
like a tomato when we open the husk
Mexican
husk tomato (husk cherry or jam berry), but well known as tomatillo,
sound like “tomato.” Tomatillo and tomatoes both are fruits used
as vegetable (eaten raw and chopped or mixed with others as salads).
Tomatillo
is Mexico origin, and tomatoes is originated from America, included
Mexico. Colonist introduced these fruits to Europe hundred years ago.
So,
what is difference between
a tomatillo and tomato?
Scientific name for tomatillo is Physalis
philadelphica,
but Lycopersicon
esculentum
for tomatoes. They
are different in genus and species
Tomatillo
is tart like flavor and
crisp texture.
When eating in raw, we might
feel its sharp taste and a little bit acidic.
Paperly
husk surrounds tomatillo
Mexican
husk tomatoes have green color, and change to yellow (some to purple)
when ripe. All of us know the taste and colors (green when unripe and
red) of tomatoes.
Some
people processed tomatillo to be jams. We use tomatillo to make
salsa, salads and sauces.
Tomatillo
is good source for fiber, mineral and vitamins. Rich in magnesium,
iron and phosphorus. Sources of vitamin C and K.
The
fruit contains beta-carotene. This vitamin A derivative is an
antioxidant to prevent cataracts and macular degenerations, thus very
good for our vision.
Do
you know tomatillo? What do you use for?
I think they are great for raw salsa. Yum.

I've seen them in markets, but I never knew much about them. I certainly don't think we've ever used them in cooking. Thanks for the information - very interesting!

I've heard of tomatillo but am not sure if I've ever had one. I think I may have tried it in salsa long ago.

Lets clear one thing up....
ReplyDeleteWhile both are members of the nightshade family, green tomatoes are hard, unripe tomatoes that can come from any variety of tomato. Tomatillos are not tomatoes, but the fruit of a different plant, and they are covered with papery husks...
The tomatillo (Physalis philadelphica and Physalis ixocarpa), also known as the Mexican husk tomato, is a plant of the nightshade family bearing small, spherical and green or green-purple fruit of the same name.
Tomatillos are a very good source of dietary fiber, niacin, potassium, and manganese...
yes, indeed....they are both the same family, but different genus and different species....
