Irga is known for its high sugar content and low acid content. Because of this feature, to many, its taste seems bland and cloying. A distinctive flavor is possessed by the berries of the canadian irgi due to its tonic sour note.

To give the workpiece an interesting nuance, take any fruits in which the acid is pronounced: gooseberries, currants, apples. Irgi jam with strawberries or raspberries has a special aroma. Almost all types of jam are filled with citric acid or lemon juice. Irga goes well with the tastes of various fruits, and therefore there are a lot of options for harvesting. They also make jams, preserves, compotes and juices. In addition, the berries are dried in electric dryers and frozen. Given the sweetness of the fruit, even a fifth of sugar by weight is enough for a delicious jam, relative to the amount of sirgi.
