Rovada

Late-season with exceptionally long trusses that make picking easy and look spectacular hanging from the bush. The berries are firm and store well, giving you a longer window to deal with the harvest. The organised gardener's redcurrant.

Summer pudding

Layer redcurrants with other summer berries in a bread-lined pudding basin, weight down overnight. Turn out. The juices soak through the bread and dye it deep purple-red. The most dramatic pudding in the British repertoire.
