Our May Cooking Club livestream class is tonight! Always free for members. Not a member? Link in bio to get your ticket. (Or heck, become a member and join the class for free!)

This month’s livestream class is exploring cooking with juniper berries. They have a slightly floral profile with a hint of pine. They’re perfect for both savory and sophisticated sweet dishes, especially if you know how to work with them.

In this class we’ll use juniper berries to make a juniper cream sauce, then we’ll serve that sauce over half-whole wheat pancakes topped with blueberries and pine nuts. It’s a nourishing savory-sweet combination perfect for breakfast at dinner time (or heck, just breakfast).

We’ll explore juniper berries’ complex flavor profile, how to avoid the astringency or bitterness that can sometimes arise when not handled properly, and other dos and don’ts for cooking with them.
