Back when I posted about currants I showed the 5 lbs of black currants we picked but never got further than that. There's been a lot of (mostly peach) preserving going on but not a lot of posting. This is the first of the catch-up (as opposed to ketchup - that's later) posts.
Black currants are dark, tart, and musky in flavor, and are very seedy. For many people, and I'm one of them, they're an acquired taste. Michael wanted to see what they were all about since black currants are relatively easy to grow and disease and pest resistant.
