Gray Whale Inn Blueberry Compote Recipes

BLUEBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 the blueberries, sugar, and water in a small, heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer, stirring often, until blueberries burst, about 10 minutes.
• Stir remaining blueberries into the simmering mixture. Continue to simmer until compote thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 8 minutes.

BLUEBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Add the 1 pound (16 ounces) of blueberries to a medium pot, along with the water, sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice, and stir to combine.
• Bring the mixture to a vigorous simmer or medium boil, and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries pop and release their juices, and soften.
• Remove from heat and give a little taste to see if you need any extra sweetener or lemon juice, then add in the reserved ¼ pound (or ¾ cup) of fresh blueberries and stir those in.
• Allow the blueberry compote to cool (I expedite the process by using my fridge), allowing the compote to thicken as it cools.
• Spoon into jars or a covered container, and use as needed, either warm or cold.

Steps:

• Place the blueberries, water, lemon juice and stevia in a small saucepan and mix gently. Heat over low heat.
• Cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until the blueberries are very soft and starting to burst. This should take 10-15 minutes, depending on the level of heat you use.
• Remove the saucepan from the heat. Allow to the compote to slightly cool and thicken, about 2 minutes. Serve alone in dessert bowls, or as a topping.
