The finished blackberry sauce to drizzle over the custard rice pudding

Karen's Quick Blackberry Sauce

I love this quick blackberry sauce for drizzling on many desserts - especially my Custard Rice Pudding with Berries.Make the sauce when the blackberries taste sweet and not too sour.

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cups fresh blackberries
  • 2 tablespoons pure cane sugar I use organic
  • 1 tablespoon filtered water

Instructions

  • Wash and dry the berries, place then in a small pot with the sugar and water.
    Bring to a boil and turn heat down to a simmer. Simmer 5 minutes to soften the berries and reduce the syrup.
  • Take off the heat and let stand 5 minutes, strain the berries: place a fine mesh stainer over a bowl to fit. Using a rubber spatula, press on the berries to release their juices and pulp. Keep pressing until only seeds are left in the strainer. (Discard the seeds.)
  • Add the blackberry syrup to a clean glass container (Scrape the back of the strainer of every last drop.) Refrigerate and use within a week.
    Yes - you can freeze it too.
