- If I ever spotted a "Wanted: a good lingonberry jam recipe" notice on a bulletin board, I'd answer it in a heartbeat. Everyone knows wild berries outshine their garden cousins in both aroma and goodness, and if you seal lingonberries' store of vitamins in a jar, you can stretch summer out a little longer. Here's a lingonberry jam recipe that won't leave anyone indifferent — it's a treat for true fans of home preserving. Use the best-quality berries you can find: pick through them carefully so no spoiled ones make it into the jars, then rinse them well. Lingonberries have one quirk — a touch of bitterness. You can fix that by blanching the berries: 2–3 minutes in boiling water takes the bitterness right out. Lift the lingonberries from the boiling water and transfer them to your cooking pot. From there, just add the sugar and cook until done, stirring in the spices about 5 minutes before the end. There are several ways to pack jam; hot-packing works well here — ladle the hot jam into clean, dry jars, seal them, and turn them upside down. Now you can confidently post your own notice: "Free to a good home: a recipe for delicious jam."
