Junipers Powder Organic

Origin Juniper

Juniper (Juniperus Communis) is a conifer from the cypress family. It occurs naturally in the Benelux and in the Netherlands can be found mainly in the Veluwe. The name Juniperus is derived from a Celtic word that means prickly. Juniperus is a thorny bush. Communis means 'common' in Latin.

The juniper played a role in prehistory. The pollen from the berries was found in soil layers around the year 13,500 - 12,100 BC. The berries and seeds have been found in cesspools and this indicates the use of the berries as a spice.

Use of juniper powder

Juniper berries have a spicy, bittersweet taste. Because the taste of juniper berries develops slowly, they need to be cooked for a long time. These juniper berries are ground into powder, which means that it takes less time for the flavour to be released. The powder is rich in many vitamins (vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B3 and vitamin C), minerals (calcium, potassium, magnesium, zinc, iron and sodium) and antioxidants.

The powder of this berry-like cone fruit can be used in many ways. For instance, the powder can be used to flavour various drinks such as gin and ginseng. Besides being used in drinks, juniper berries taste great in winter dishes! Traditionally, they are used to season sauerkraut and game, in marinades and in sauces and ragout.

You can also use ground juniper when preparing fish and poultry. Especially delicious on the grill or barbecue! Besides sauerkraut, the flavour of juniper berries goes well with almost all other types of cabbage. Juniper berries go well with other spices such as parsley and bay leaf.
