About Lingonberry jam

Lingonberry jam is a cooked fruit preserve made from lingonberries, typically with sugar. It is served as a condiment or spread and may accompany savoury foods as well as bread or other simple foods. Recipes vary in sweetness and in how much the berries are left intact.

The jam is usually deep red and may range from a loose, spoonable preserve to a thicker set texture. Its flavour is tart and fruity, balanced by sweetness, and the berries may give it a lightly seedy or pulpy feel. Commercial and homemade versions differ in sugar, cooking, and gelling ingredients.
