Barberry, also known by its Persian name, Zereshk, is a shrub that grows sour, red berries. The plant is native to central Asia and the Middle East and is especially used in Iranian cuisine. With their tart and tangy flavor, dried barberries add an exquisite taste to different dishes, and the little ruby-like fruits give the food a lively touch of color. Dried barberries contain several beneficial compounds, mainly vitamin C, antioxidants, and berberine (a component found only in barberries) which makes them one of the most nutritional ingredients used in various dishes such as stuffed chicken, a variety of salads, and especially Persian jeweled rice, also know as Zereshk Polow.
