2 cups blueberries
1/2 cup water
3/4 tsp grated lemon peel
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
1. Place blueberries in large stockpot and crush with potato masher. Add water and lemon peel; simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. Strain fruit through cheese cloth, metal strainer or food mill to remove pulp and seeds; reserve juice.
2. In a large saucepan, mix sugar and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, until temperature reaches 260 degrees F. Add blueberry juice and boil for 1 minute. Stir in lemon juice and remove from heat. Let cool and freeze or can as desired.
Try #1 (Feb. 6, 2010):
Used frozen blueberries
No grated lemon peel
Did not strain fruit (there was no pulp/seeds)
Don't know what temperature water was at when I added the blueberry juice
Notes: A little too sweet... might cut the sugar a bit next time. Also, very runny - I added a dash of corn starch but probably not enough.
Delicious on french toast, oatmeal, and yogurt!
