Lingonberry

Lingonberry is one of our wild nordic berries. Like bilberry, it's harvested in the wilderness of the Arctic Circle where it grows wild. Its flavonoids, lingans, vitamin A and C and antioxidants are preserved almost perfectly by our freeze drying process.

Lingonberry is a common ingredient in nordic cuisine, not least because its natural benzoic acids that have an antimicrobial effect, which is a major advantage when preparing foods. Because of its unique taste it can be used for warm main courses of meat and vegetarian alike, desserts and condiments like the traditional nordic delicacy of lingonberry sugar. It's often called the most important forest berry of Scandinavia and for a good reason; in nordic countries using lingonberry for "everything" has made it understated for what it actually is.

Our NatureDry freeze drying process has made the humble lingonberry a product we're very proud of. Finding a perfect drying process wasn't easy, lingonberry has a very thick waxy peel and we had to find a way to extract every last bit of moisture we could. Without destroying the nutritients, that is. And we did.

This is the berry to use for all kinds of sauces warm or cold, main course or dessert. Grinding freeze dried lingonberry to powder makes it an ideal ingredient in a rub and mixing it with anything granular or powdery is very easy. Your imagination is literally the limit, with virtually all the nutritients of a fresh lingonberry.

Shelf life for all packaged lingonberries is 24 months.
