Spruce needle oil, 15 g

Spruce needle oil brings a surprising, fresh and woody aroma to patisserie and confectionery. The young spruce needles, which are harvested from May to October, are particularly aromatic and give food and drinks a characteristic taste. The oil tastes earthy and tart with fresh, slightly lemony notes. This combination makes it an exciting ingredient for confectionery experiments and modern dessert creations that want to surprise with unusual flavours. Taste explosion in confectionery: spruce needle chocolates are already available from some specialist chocolatiers. The combination of chocolate and forest aroma is unexpected and intense. The oil can be easily incorporated into your own couverture creations, ganache or praline fillings. Possible applications: Your own chocolate bars with a hint of spruce needle, ganache for pralines, mousse desserts with a woody touch, glazes, syrups or flavored cookies. The oil also adds a subtle accent to savory preparations, such as game dishes or winter salads. Important when dosing: the oil is very concentrated, just a few drops are enough for a clearly perceptible aroma. It is best added at the end of the preparation so that the essential components do not evaporate. Spruce needle oil harmonizes particularly well with dark chocolate, vanilla, citrus fruits, berries and honey. These combinations bring out the woody aroma and create a balanced taste experience. Store in a cool, dark and tightly closed container. Protect from heat and light to preserve the essential oils. Once opened, consume within a few months.
