In late summer, the ground in the Swedish forest shines red. It’s lingonberry season and the small sour berries that thrive best in cold climates are ready to be picked. Swedes love eating the jam made from lingonberries with meatballs, mashed potatoes and cream sauce. The light sweetness is also great with other classic dishes like potato fritters, potato dumplings and pork pancakes. Maybe it will be extra tasty knowing that our SYLT LINGON is organic.

Without a doubt, meatballs are the best known of all Swedish dishes, traditionally served with potatoes, lingonberry jam and cream sauce. The dish is an unexpected meeting of flavours as the lingonberry sweetness contrasts, yet harmonizes, with the meatballs, while the cream sauce serves as a neutral “mediator” between the two.

We want to source food from more sustainable sources and make it available at affordable prices. Organic food production that minimizes the use of chemical inputs is one of the ways we can achieve this goal. The definitions of organic vary across countries, but the intention is the same – good environmental practices, like preserving soil health, biodiversity, and human and animal health. In the IKEA store, you will find several products that are EU organic certified.
