I've been looking at recipes using juniper berries, and now I'm mad I'm the judge and not the cook!

I'll be doing my best not to let my personal (dis)taste of an ingredient stand in the way of recognizing the overall creativity of our participating chefs.

I forgot to thaw it... I will cook this tomorrow.

I'm afraid today's docket includes... menudo soup. (No juniper...)
