  • For added flavor, lightly grill or toast the rye bread before spreading the lingonberry jam.
  • Experiment with different types of sausages, such as reindeer or elk, to further enhance the Nordic flavors.
  • If lingonberry jam is not available, cranberry sauce can be used as a substitute.
  • Serve with a side of pickled vegetables for a traditional Nordic accompaniment.
