Uwajimaya is a wonderful store for all things asian. They fly in the fresh fruits and veggies from the far east every week.
Ber is called Elandha pazham in Tamil.

We call them ber(Hindi) and kool(Bengali) and use it to make a sweet and sour pickle. I love the vicous insides of this fruit. Know I want to see how you use it.

Hi Indira! So wonderful to have you back! Great to see you are doing fine in Seattle. I think those are called ‘Ber’ in Hindi. Ohh…they make me soo nostalgic. We had two trees (If this is ‘ber’ at all) and we (cousins,friends, neighbours) had so much fun picking these tangy-sweet marvels! Mom used to make great pickle (both sweet and savory) with them. My parents moved from that house with those lovely trees, but the memories are so dear.
