Chunky Berry Sauce Recipe - The Washington Post

Democracy Dies in DarknesscourseCondimentStart CookingComment on this storyAdd to your saved recipesBy Susan Barocas

This berry sauce is a great way to use up a surplus of berries and makes a delightful accompaniment for blintzes, ice cream, toast — or whatever you desire. Cranberries are plentiful in winter and blueberries in summer, so your blintzes never need to be without a homemade sauce to complete them.

Storage: Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

Ingredients

measuring cup

Servings: 16 (makes 2 cups)

Directions

  • Step 1

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir together the berries, sugar, butter, orange zest and juice, and cornstarch until combined, and bring to a simmer. Maintain the mixture at a simmer, stir gently occasionally, until the berries pop and release their juices.

  • Step 2

    Remove from the heat and let cool; the sauce will thicken as it stands. If it thickens too much, stir in a little orange juice to loosen.

  • Step 3

    Serve warm, at room temperature or chilled.
