Lagusta's Blueberry Black Current Truffles

Blueberry Jam

This really isn’t blueberry jam, but blueberries are so filled with pectin that just heating them with some sugar and letting them hang out for a while makes a workable fake.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups (320 g) blueberries fresh or frozen
  • 1/2 cup (100 g) sugar

Instructions

  1. Combine the blueberries and sugar in a 2-quart pot and bring to a boil, then let simmer for 10 minutes, or until the blueberries thicken and break down a little.
  2. Remove from the heat. Let cool, then strain (save the juices to stir into vegan yogurt, pour over vegan ice cream, or mix with seltzer for a blueberry soda). Store in the refrigerator 1 week or for 2 months in the freezer.
