Blueberry Sauce/Syrup


1 cup water
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup strained fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 cups blueberries
1 teaspoon vanilla
Combine the water, sugar, lemon juice, and corn starch in a medium-sized heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, and cook 1-2 minutes until thickened. Add the blueberries and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add the vanilla. You can either mash or blend the berries (like for syrup) or leave them whole (to use as a topping). Serve warm and refrigerate the leftover.
