  2. Add the berries, reduce heat to low, stir gently and cook berries until they release enough juice to create a sauce but still retain their shape. This takes about 10 minutes.

Hey Liz...great recipe (as usual!) . I love purple teeth myself...it is a occupational hazard of making and drinking lots of red wine! I love blueberries and this is what is called a "rock star recipe. It will be perfect to accompany pork loin. I also love "listening" to you describe your canning adventures.

Looks fabulous. I love sweet and savory together.

I suppose it is great fun serving what will also give everyone very blue mouths.
I would use raspberries.
Or serve blueberries as an unforgettable dessert in a deep plate with sugar and plenty of half and half milk.

Is this constructive criticism? My guests had no such thing as a "blue mouth". Sorry you were disappointed with my recipe. When we have guests in our home, I assure you that their comfort and happiness is the point of the occasion.

That sounds just fine, parisienne. Why don't you submit your own recipe? You've obviously been inspired by Lizthechef's delicious recipe.
