Baie rose de Madagascar: the colourful spice that awakens your dishes

The Madagascar pink berry is unmistakable: its bright pink berries catch the eye before they seduce the palate. Contrary to its name, this is not a “real” pepper, but the dried fruit of a tree called Schinus terebinthifolius. Mild, slightly sweet, aniseed and peppery all at once, pink berries add a subtle, elegant touch to your recipes.

How to use pink berries in cooking

The pink berry is the perfect spice to marry flavor and aesthetics. It can be found in :

  • Fish and seafood (salmon, shrimp, sea bream).

  • Grilled poultry or poultry in a light sauce.

  • Roasted or pan-fried vegetables.

  • Fruity and chocolate desserts (with Madagascar vanilla).

💡 Tip: lightly crush it between your fingers just before adding it, to release all its fragrance.
