Description
Juniper berries are sourced from an evergreen shrub that grows in Northern, quite chilly climates and a few temperate climates. It has been used for centuries as a table spice and an ingredient for marinades, spirits, and as a preservative by ancient Romans, Gauls, the French, and lots of Native American tribes. (The latter also used the berries as beads for jewelry and decoration.) Many cultures also thought the berries to have mystical properties such as the facility to purify dwellings or the body.
The flavor is piney, sweet, woody, fresh and will no doubt remind you of gin. The spice is popular principally for pickling and for the production of gin and other spirits. Then again, the berry’s flavor works well for meat rubs. Blend with salt, garlic, and black pepper for a well-liked dry rub that goes well with venison, boar, and lamb. Finely ground with thyme and rosemary, the rub features well on less fatty cuts of beef.
