I'd grown up, like most coastal kids, eating them or packing ice cream buckets with them for eating later on. Apparently you can eat thimbleberry shoots too but I've not tried.Deetsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02261827929150786107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18042094.post-1147822594893419542006-05-16T16:36:00.000-07:002006-05-16T16:36:00.000-07:00Hi Nerissa!

Thank you for your comments on my site while I've been away, and I see that I've missed so many wonderful dishes from your kitchen (that halibut with sorrel sauce sounds amazing!) - plus, I've just missed chatting with you!<BR/><BR/>Salmon berries are one of my favorite berries! They grow down by the coast where most of my field sites are and I miss them every year until they start coming out! I had no idea you could eat the shoots - yay local!Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02537200901718762277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18042094.post-1147791736215187242006-05-16T08:02:00.000-07:002006-05-16T08:02:00.000-07:00Oops... missed sher: Well, I guess this is a reall...Oops... missed sher: Well, I guess this is a really localized food. If you've grown up in the Pacific Northwest of Canada and the United States you just may know them.

They are very pretty in the sunlight. <BR/><BR/>Iam: Oooh...sorbet! that's a possibility!Especially since the weather just started to warm up<BR/><BR/>Felicia: I was thinking about the rhubarb type connection but they aren't nearly as sour. I'd be afraid of destroying their delicate perfume. Glad the tuna casserole :D<BR/><BR/>Sam: Salmon berries are a very subtly flavoured berry. There are three colours: Yellow, Orange and Red. I personally like the Orange because they are the sweetest. You'd think it was the red but it isn't. The new shoots on the bush taste like a lighter version of them.Deetsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02261827929150786107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18042094.post-1147620929184748102006-05-14T08:35:00.000-07:002006-05-14T08:35:00.000-07:00I've never heard of them either.

I've never had salmonberries (or shoots) so I'm not sure if they could give the same "punch" as rhubarb. I've eaten a very nice strawberrry rhubarb pie/crumble. Mmmm.<BR/>PS: I tried your tuna casserole recipe because Tuna Helper was one of my roommate's and my staple dinners. Your recipe was very good (and healthier than Tuna Helper), it "comforted" me! I liked the zucchini. Unfortunately, I just had plain ole orange cheese on hand and think that the smoked gouda will make it even better.
