Description
Juniper berries have a distinctive and complex aroma, both woody, spicy, and slightly peppery. They emit a warm, earthy smell with hints of pine, licorice, and conifers. This particular aroma comes from the essential oils present in the berries, which are released when crushed or heated.
With their tangy and resinous flavor, juniper berries add fragrance to Northern cuisine. These berries, full of virtues, are perfect for simmered dishes, flavorful meats, sauerkraut, beer-braised chicken, or game meats.
