Arctic Bramble Jam is a delicious preserve made from arctic brambles, also known as arctic cloudberries or arctic blueberries in some regions of Latin America. These small berries grow in the cold subarctic and arctic zones, primarily in countries such as Canada, Finland, Norway, and Russia, where the cold climate and acidic soils favor their natural cultivation.
This ingredient stands out for its unique sweet and sour flavor, with a slightly floral and acidic touch that adds freshness to any preparation. Arctic bramble jam is commonly used as a spread on bread, as an accompaniment to cheeses, or as a complement in desserts and savory dishes, adding a very characteristic flavor contrast.
From a nutritional point of view, this jam is a good source of antioxidants, especially anthocyanins, which are compounds responsible for the fruit's dark color and that help combat oxidative damage in the body. It also provides B-complex vitamins, vitamin C, and dietary fiber, although in smaller quantities due to the preservation process.
In different regions of Latin America, besides "arctic bramble jam," it may be found under names such as arctic blackberry jam or arctic blueberry jam, although its use and popularity are more common in traditional northern recipes and in gourmet preparations that seek to highlight exotic and natural ingredients.
