How to Make Blueberry Sauce With Fresh Lavender

  1. Combine 1 1/2 cups blueberries, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon dried culinary lavender buds (or 2 tablespoons fresh lavender flowers, finely chopped), and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and carefully remove the lavender stems or flowers.
  5. Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, puree the sauce until smooth. If using a regular blender, work in batches to avoid splattering.
  6. Gently stir in the remaining 1/2 cup blueberries.
  7. Return the sauce to low heat and simmer for another 2-3 minutes to heat through and allow the remaining blueberries to soften slightly. Do not boil.
  8. Serve warm, chilled, or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
