Gooseberry is a white, yellow, red or green berry according to the species, with a thorny, hairy or even skin. The different varieties are distinguished from each other by the time of maturation, taste, color, size, shape of the fruit and the way in which it is consumed. The most outstanding is the yellowish fruit with hairy skin, although there are also varieties of reddish, pale whitish green and dark green skin. Its strange taste is never sweet enough to enable the consumer to eat it raw, so it is normally used it in the processing of different by-products. Nevertheless, some varieties like Early Sulphur are consumed raw. Other varieties are more suitable to be cooked, like Careless, Leveller, Whinham"s Industry and Howard"s Lancer, and the rest are intended for processing jam and preserves, like Keepsake and Lancashire Lad. Apart from this species of currant there are other species like red currant and blackcurrant. Gooseberries grow solitary, not in clusters, in Europe and America. It does not grow in clusters and it is larger than red currant. This fruit is used to make cakes, sherbets, jelly and syrup. It is an ingredient for puddings, fruit salads and chutneys. To make gooseberry jam it is recommended to harvest the berries when they are still pale green, since their pectin content diminishes soon after they have reached the maturation point. The skin of ripe gooseberries is hard and it looses its colour with the heat treatment. Gooseberries are also served as garnish for meat and fish dishes. They have a high content of pectin and citric acid. The energetic value for each 100 g of fresh product is between 34-40 kcal. Its composition is quite similar to that of red currant. It is the richest in vitamin A of all the currant species, although its content of minerals and other vitamins is very similar to the content in red currants.

Blackcurrant is a berry of translucent pulp with red or green tones and bittersweet taste. The fruit is small, of black-blue color and spherical shape, with an intense taste when completely ripe. This berry is covered with hair and its pulp contains multiple small seeds. These fruits are not loose; they grow in clusters. The Blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum, belonging to the botanical family of Saxigfragaceae) is the shrub where currants grow. In English its name means â??berry of gooseâ?? because long ago it was the main ingredient of a sauce that went together with goose dishes. Blackcurrant is used to make liquors, wine, juice and jelly. Blackcurrants are extremely rich in sugars, organic acids and vitamin C. The quantity of vitamin C in 250 ml of currants is three times superior to that contained in a small orange. Blackcurrants are excellent laxatives. They must be consumed in a short time, otherwise, they will spoil. In the fridge, at 4ºC of temperature, they last for one week. The output is used in the food industry that uses Blackcurrants for processing syrups, jelly and refreshing drinks. A characteristic liquor is made by means of macerating them in brandy and adding syrup. They are also used in chemists to improve flavors and as a source of food coloring.
