    Blueberry Balsamic Sauce

    A sweet sauce with punchy balsamic vinegar. Perfect over ice cream, yogurt, or cakes, it’s also magnificent drizzled over meats such as duck or pork, or as a condiment for cheese. Convert it to a dressing with a few tablespoons of olive oil and pair it with peppery arugula.

    Ingredients
      

    • 2 cups frozen blueberries
    • ½ cup balsamic vinegar
    • 1 cup water
    • ¼ cup maple syrup
    • 1 teaspoon black pepper
    • Pinch of salt

    Method

    2. In blender or food processor, blend mixture and then pass through a sieve. (Collect solids from the sieve and spread them on toast). Place sauce in jar and keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. It’s equally delicious served cold or gently warmed.
