Blueberry butter
Description
A simple preservation recipe. I make this homemade blueberry butter every year—it turns into an excellent winter stash! Just keep in mind your own taste preferences: some of my household find this butter too tart, though I really like it. So just in case, you can use less lemon juice and zest—it will be sweeter. Store in a cool, dark place.
