A collection from all over the world

If you don’t know what to do with blackcurrants (in case you have too much of them, or maybe you never cooked with them?), you might type “blackcurrant recipe” in your search engine.

Guess what: you may find thousands of them. Because blackcurrants can be used in gastronomy for various  purposes: in dishes, desserts, drinks, jams, preserves… And most extraordinarily, it is not just the berry itself which you can find in many recipes.

The International Blackcurrant Association will never manage to give a comprehensive blackcurrant recipe collection. But we are doing our best to share as much delightful ideas as possible.

Scroll down and select your favorite blackcurrant recipe from the category of your interest. Also, feel free to share the experience with your blackcurrant recipe. You can put them on facebook, twitter, instagram… – and of course invite your family and friends to share your preparation with you!

Enjoy!

The blackcurrant has been called a “culinary chameleon”: it has the most wonderful ability in the kitchen.
