Ligonberry Preserves

Ligonberry preserves are great with meat dishes, especially meatballs, but the ligonberry jam is also great on waffles, pancakes or just with toast. Here are some new ways of using the new super berry, Ligonberry.



Lingonberry Horseradish Sauce

Created for venison and elk, but we found it to be a favorite with turkey and roasts as well.

1 C fresh or frozen Lingonberries
Or, use 1 1/2 C. Lingonberry Jam rather than fresh berries, sugar and water.
1/2 C sugar
1/2 C. sour cream
1 Tbs water
2 tsp. prepared horseradish

Mix ingredients together, chill and serve.

Lingonberry Sour Cream Sauce

A wonderful, and quickly prepared, dip for Swedish meatballs

  • Mix 1/2 C. Lingonberry jam with 1 C. Sour cream. Heat briefly in microwave.
  • Serve as a dip for Swedish meatballs (make and freeze the meatballs in advance) for an delightful and quickly prepared appetizer

Lingonberry Stuffed Croissants

A delicious breakfast or brunch treat.

o    Purchase a package of pre-made Crescent Roll dough. It is available in the dairy cooler of most groceries.

o    Pop open the dough tube and place 1 Tbs. of Lingonberry Jam on each dough square.

o    Fold over to form a triangle and follow the package instructions to bake.

o    In no time, you'll end up with a dozen stuffed croissants for a delicious breakfast or brunch treat.


Lingonberry Tortilla

Before I swore off carbs, I loved hot pepper jelly. By using Friendship Farm sugar-free lingonberry jam I was inspired to create this odd and yummy low carb treat.

o    Pan fry both sides of one Mission low-carb tortilla -- you want it a little crunchy

o    Melt a little shredded cheddar cheese on top.

o    Drizzle with Louisiana hot sauce.

o    Add 1 TB of Friendship Farm Sugar-Free Lingonberry Jam.
