Ingredients
- 500 grams fresh or frozen blueberries
- 750 milliliters water
- 100 grams granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons potato starch or cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons cold water
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon (optional)
- 0 whipped cream or yogurt (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries and 750 milliliters of water. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Step 2
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the blueberries to soften and release their juices.
Step 3
Stir in the granulated sugar, lemon juice, and optional ground cinnamon. Adjust the sugar level to taste if needed.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix the potato starch or cornstarch with 3 tablespoons of cold water until smooth and lump-free.
Step 5
Gradually stir the starch mixture into the simmering blueberry soup, whisking constantly to prevent clumps. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the soup thickens to your desired consistency.
Step 6
Remove the soup from heat and let it cool slightly. Serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled, depending on your preference.
Step 7
Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or a spoonful of yogurt, if desired, and enjoy!
