jagi00 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Can anyone advise where to buy juniper berries in Chiang Mai? I have tried the usual supermarkets and Yok but no luck so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realthaideal Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I always bring mine from home, as they're super cheap there. But I've also ordered spices and things through local restaurateur friends - so that's what I suggest. Find someone with a sympathetic ear that wouldn't mind taking on an order of something small for you. I bet most of the German restaurants have a connection, or might even be holding and be willing to parse out a few for you. I find them indispensable when making my sauteed red cabbage (rotkohl). You gonna do that or make sauerbraten? And no, I'm not German, but I used to be a cook and love food from all around the world done right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagi00 Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 Thanks for the suggestion, I'm planning to use them as part of a BBQ spice rub. I've just been advised in another forum that Rimping stocks them but I haven't found any yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rimbuman Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Juniper berries are being used as a kidney tonic to enhance kidney function. They are also common in Chinese medicine, so if you can find a Chinese herbalist/herbal-shop you should be able to find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
