Juniper Berries

[eel28]

I have been looking at an old thread about curing bacon http://www.bushcraftuk.com/forum/showthread.php?t=28154 and was wondering where i could get hold of some juniper berries as i don't recall seeing them on the fruit counters of supermarkets - or have I just blindly wandered past them??

Thanks in advance for all your help.

Just find a pre-Christian hermit living in a hole. He's bound to have some nearby.

you'll most likely find them dried in health food stores.

Try the spice and herb section.

Thanks for your replies so far, still not managed to find any so have decided that for my first try, i will just go without.

Look in one of the big supermarkets in the herbs & spices section. I got mine from Sainsburys the brand is Schwartz. You could always try http://www.sainsburys.co.uk/groceries/index.jsp?bmUID=1255506228862

If you still can't find them, PM your address I'll send a few in the post - The flavour is very strong so you wont need many.

Not around here, I went to 3 supermarkets for some pectin when I made my jam last month having asked till I found someone who knew what I was talking about I was told they havn't sold it for ages ASDA was the only one that said if I put a sugestion in the customer service desk if they had enough demand they may stock it. I had to blag some off my mum in the end
