I have already forgotten what a barberry bush looks like, but I perfectly remember the taste of "Barberry" sweets.
I still like them :-)

I never had sweets! Didn't even know they make sweet out of them.
Maybe you just didn’t pay attention and therefore didn’t see?
Sweets have a sweet and sour taste, I still like them :-)
I never saw any products made with Barberry. It is not really common in Poland to use for food.
Only recently I read it can be used in liquors. But never saw anyone using it that way.
Jam and drinks are also made from barberry in Russia
Barberry jam recipe:
Barberry - 0.5 kg
Sugar - 300 g
Water - 1 glass
Peel the berries from the stems and leaves.
Rinse well several times
Add sugar and warm water
Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for about 30 minutes on a minimum.
Let cool
Heat again for 5 minutes to a boil and cool again.
Then, for the third time, heat the barberry jam for 5 minutes and put it in sterilized jars, immediately tightening the lids.
P.S. It is advisable to collect the barberry after the first frost - the peel of the berries becomes less dense, their taste is significantly improved.
That is so cool! It does seem like a lot of berries. They are so tiny!
Thank you :))
