Stir until the sugar starts to dissolve, but leave some berries whole. This gives a fresher texture when served.

Did you know?

Stirred lingonberries keep more fresh berry flavor than cooked jam because the berries are not heated. The sugar draws out juice and softens the tartness, while keeping the characteristic fresh taste clear. This is why stirred lingonberries work especially well with game and brown sauce.
