Juniper Berries Organic 50g - Quick Reference
What is it?: Organic whole juniper berries, the aromatic spice best known for flavouring gin.
Flavour: Piney and resinous with citrus lift, dark fruit and a lightly bitter finish.
Common uses: Gin infusions, game, venison, pork, sauerkraut, pickles, sauces, gravies and winter drinks.
Pairs well with: Rosemary, thyme, orange, black pepper, cabbage, beetroot, duck and venison.
How to use: Crush lightly just before use and add sparingly. A few berries are usually enough for a casserole, sauce or infusion.
Compare with: More aromatic and forest-like than peppercorns, with a character that bridges savoury cooking and drinks.
Substitute: Rosemary and citrus peel can suggest the same pine-citrus direction, but there is no exact replacement.
Storage: Store whole and airtight away from direct light.
Good to know: Juniper is one of the rare spices whose identity is equally important in a spirit and in classic game cookery.
