Juniper berries are the dried seed cones of the juniper plant, prized for their distinctive pine-like aroma and fresh, slightly sweet flavour with subtle citrus and peppery notes. A staple in European and Scandinavian cuisine, they add depth and complexity to a wide range of savoury dishes.
Perfect for seasoning game meats, beef, lamb, pork, duck, and venison, juniper berries are also commonly used in marinades, pickling recipes, sauces, and slow-cooked stews. They pair exceptionally well with rosemary, thyme, bay leaves, black pepper, and garlic. Juniper berries are also the signature botanical used in the production of gin.
For the best flavour, lightly crush the berries before adding them to your recipe to release their aromatic oils.
