So, what is puolukka?
Puolukka, also known as lingonberry, is a small, tart, and red-colored berry that grows on low, evergreen shrubs in the Northern Hemisphere. The name "puolukka" comes from the Finnish language, and it has been used for centuries in Scandinavian and Baltic cuisines as a key ingredient in sauces, jams, and desserts. These berries are a rich source of vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber, making them a nutritious addition to any diet. Their unique tangy taste adds a delicious flavor to dishes, and their bright color makes them an appealing garnish as well.
