Lingonberry jam with apples

Cookinero 5 May 2025

Lingonberry and apple jam is prepared very quickly, literally in 5 minutes. That's why the dessert was nicknamed "five-minute". This delicacy differs from traditional jam not only in the cooking algorithm. The essence is to preserve the integrity of the berries and the nutrients in them as much as possible. And if traditional jam preserves only 10-30% of the vitamins, then "five-minute" preserves all 70%. At the same time, the shelf life of such jam is up to 3 years. Therefore, it can be safely prepared for the winter.
