Recipe: Blueberry-Lime Sauce (for ice cream or pound cake)

BLUEBERRY-LIME SAUCE

"Serve over vanilla ice cream or pound cake or whatever. Tastes like blueberry pie but fast and easy."

1 dry pint blueberries
1 small lime
1 cup sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch

Pick over blueberries looking for leaves and stems. Wash and drain well; set aside.

Mix sugar and cornstarch together in a saucepan. Grate rind (zest) of the lime into sugar-cornstarch and mix in. Add the blueberries and crush slightly to get some juice out.

Put over medium heat stirring well. (The heat will cause the blueberries to give up juice). Keep mixing until quite juicy. Bring to a boil and stir until the sauce turns from chalky to clear.

Remove from heat and squeeze in the juice of the lime; stir it in.
