Lingonberries are noted for their sharp, acidic, and astringent taste when raw. This tartness makes them an excellent counterpoint to rich, savory dishes like game meats or the traditional Swedish meatballs, similar to cranberry sauce. They are also commonly sweetened for use in jams, juices, and baked goods.
