Blueberry Pie Filling

This is a wonderful pie filling that makes a flavorful addition to baking pies, tarts or even a topping for ice cream.

3/4 cup white sugar
3 Tbsp. corn starch (or you may use tapioca)
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup water
4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
1 Tbsp. lemon juice

In a saucepan combine sugar, salt and corn starch with water, blueberries and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until thick.

Tip: Wild blueberries (fresh or frozen) have much more flavor then domestic (cultivated) blueberries are are worth the money (or time to pick them yourself!).

We doubled the recipe and had wonderful results.
