"Ground cherries, Physalis pruinosa, which produce tiny tomato-like fruits in papery husks on low bushes, also known as husk tomatoes, are a smaller, more flavorful cousin of the tomatillo, used in Mexican salsa verde." — MARBALET

4 cups ground cherries, husked
1/2 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons tapioca
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons butter
1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
This pie's flavor reminds me of a gooseberry pie. It is good and very easy to make. Between the Ground Cherry Pie 1 and the Ground Cherry Pie 11 recipe, I would choose the ground Cherry Pie 11.
