Badia Juniper Berries 12 oz

Whole juniper berries — dried, dark purple, pine-resinous — used to flavor long-cooked meats, brines, and game-forward stews. The 12 oz size is a working pantry quantity, not a spice-rack jar.

Common Uses: rabo encendido, carne guisada with red wine, pork and beef brines, sauerkraut-style braises, and marinades for game meats.

Pantry Role: base seasoning, brine/marinade base.

Common In: European kitchens (German, Scandinavian, Alsatian) and pan-Latin home kitchens building deeper braises.

Pairs With: bay leaf, black peppercorn, garlic, red wine, vinegar, allspice, and clove in slow-cooked meat preparations.

Kosher, vegan, gluten-free. Crush lightly before adding to release the resinous oils. Ships nationwide — a 12 oz bag of whole juniper is hard to source outside specialty spice suppliers.
