Barberry - Berberidi vulgaris

The barberry (Berberis vulgaris) is a deciduous shrub belonging to the barberry family (Berberidaceae). The plant is native to large parts of Eurasia and prefers relatively dry, often calcareous soils, such as along forest edges and in thickets.

The shrub is known for its thorny branches, yellow flowers, and elongated, bright red berries. The roots, bark, leaves, and fruits naturally contain various plant compounds, including berberine. This compound is characteristic of plants in the Berberis genus.

Barberries have long been valued in various cultures for their culinary uses. In Europe, the berries were traditionally used in the preparation of jam and other foods. In countries such as Iran, the dried fruits play an important role in the kitchen and are used as a seasoning in rice dishes, as well as in fish and meat dishes.

Today, barberries are primarily valued for their characteristic flavor and long history within botanical and culinary traditions.
