These berries are used fresh or dried and then crushed to impart a sharp, savory, pine-like flavor to food. They have been used in northern European and Scandinavian cuisine mostly in meat dishes and sauerkraut. These refreshing juniper berries are excellent for balancing rich, gamey or fatty food. They complement beef, fish, lamb, wild game, pork and cabbage dishes and work well with other spices, especially thyme, sage, oregano, marjoram, bay leaves, allspice, onion and garlic.

FAQ
How old are these spices?
We purchase what we need every year right after the spices are harvested. These spices are as fresh as you can get. They are not sitting in a warehouse for multiple years. The oldest spices we carry will be one year old compared to the commodity market which warehouses spices for 10+ years before selling them to you.
Are these spices certified organic?
Unfortunately we do not have any certifications at this time but most of our spices are organically grown and all of them are non gmo. Each ingredient can be traced back to its origin. Email support@spicetribe.com for any questions.
