How to Make Juniper Berry Pork with Roasted Acorns and Rose Hip Jam - Easy Outdoors Cooking

How to make juniper berry pork with roasted acorns and wild rose hip jam – a wild meal recipe for your easy outdoors experience. Juniper berry is the female seed cone produced by the various species of junipers. It is not a true berry but a cone. The cones from a handful of species, especially Juniperus communis, are used as a spice, particularly in European cuisine, and also give gin its distinctive flavor. The juniper berry goes good with rich meat dishes like pork or wild game. Acorns are also rich in nutrients. Percentages vary from species to species, but all acorns contain large amounts of protein, carbohydrates and fats, as well as the minerals calcium, phosphorus and potassium, and the vitamin niacin. Total food energy in an acorn also varies by species, but all compare well with other wild foods and with other nuts. Acorns also contain bitter tannins, which can be harmful to humans. Tannins can be removed by soaking chopped acorns in several changes of water, until the water no longer turns brown. Hot water leaching (boiling) cooks the starch of the acorn, which would otherwise act like gluten in flour, helping it bind to itself. For this reason, if the acorns will be used to make flour, then cold water leaching is preferred. Acorns can also made edible by roasting them. Wild rose hip fruits are particularly rich in vitamin C. Some people take it as a source of vitamin C to prevent and treat colds, flu, and vitamin C deficiencies. Rose hips contain the carotenoids beta-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin and lycopene. Rose hips are used for herbal teas, jam, jelly, syrup, rose hip soup, beverages, pies, bread, wine, and marmalade. They can also be eaten raw, like a berry, if care is taken to avoid the hairs inside the fruit.
