Borus berries. Fruit of the Borus vine. A Borus berry is a complex fruit that appear based on how it’s prepared. With nodules the size of a plum and mostly seedless, a Borus can be used in juice, candy, and baked good with the addition of a sweetener. The flavor is akin to watermelon raspberry. 1/
The seeded nodules have to be baked or boiled to extract the seed. They then can be used for sauces and savory dishes, bringing a sweet, tart and umami tone. The seeded ones can also make wine if mashed and left to ferment for two months and the juice skimmed off. This is why a bottle is expensive.
