The best blueberries are the fresh ones! But at the end of the season, if you have some in your freezer, it's nice to make stewed blueberries, and then serve them in a little dessert cup, or over cream or mixed into some yogurt. Unlike the blueberry sauce, there is no cornstarch thickener in this recipe.
Ingredients
2 cups of frozen blueberries
1/2 cup water
1 - 2 TBS white sugar
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
Directions
Put the sugar and water in a small sauce pan. Heat on medium until the sugar is dissolved.
Add the blueberries, stir and bring to a gentle boil for 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat. Let cool a bit and taste for sweetness. Add more sugar if necessary.
Add the lemon juice.
Pour into a jar and cool at room temperature. Store in the fridge.
We loved these as kids - it was fun to see your tongue turn blue.
