Lingonberries Anyone?

Lingonberries

Another Autumn sign. I like my lingonberries with meatballs and potatoes. And Vargtass, which is a drink made of lingon lemonade and vodka. Skål!

  2. I had to look "lingonberries" up. If we have them in the US, I haven't seen them. They look like our cranberries. Nice photo.

  4. Wow, overload. I've heard of lingonberries but we don't have them here. Are they related to cranberries? They look a lot like them.

  6. I do remember lingonberries from my childhood. I'm assuming they grew in Minnesota. I also remember smorgasbords and lutefisk. Ugh re the latter.

  9. What a great image Steffe, so these berries can be used in savoury AND sweet dishes I'm guessing. Interesting!!
