In The Netherlands the Juniper berries are traditionally used to flavor sauerkraut. Other uses include meats, sauces, and stuffings. They are generally crushed before use to release their flavour. Since juniper berries have a strong taste, they should be used sparingly. They are generally used to enhance meat with a strong flavour, such as game, including game birds, or tongue. Try it in marinades, seasonings, ragout or pate.
