BLUEBERRY OR BLACKBERRY COMPOTE WITH YOGURT OR RICOTTA
Blueberries don't need much in the way of sweetener (blackberries are more tart, so you might want to use a little more with them), yet this simple compote will transform a plain bowl of yogurt or ricotta cheese into a dessert - or a very nice breakfast. The compote is modeled on Deborah Madison's recipe in her lovely book, "Seasonal Fruit Desserts." She sweetens her compote with maple syrup or maple sugar, which is also a lovely way to go. The small amount of cinnamon brings out the essential essence of the berries. I like to add a touch of rose water; the floral essence is beautiful with the berries. Don't simmer for too long, or the compote will become more like jam - though it is also nice as a sort of jam with toast. Ricotta is richer than yogurt, so I serve less of it with the berries.

Steps:
- Combine all ingredients except cornstarch dissolved in water and ricotta or yogurt in a saucepan. Add 1 tablespoon water and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer until blueberries release their juices and blackberries begin to break apart, about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally from time to time.
- Stir in dissolved cornstarch and stir until mixture thickens. Remove from heat and allow to cool, or serve warm, spooned over yogurt or ricotta. Alternative method: I use this method with blackberries, since as they break down more: Toss the berries in a bowl with 2 tablespoons organic sugar. Cover and refrigerate overnight. The next day, add 1 more tablespoon sugar, honey or agave nectar if desired and proceed with step 1 of the recipe.

Steps:
- Bring water, sugar, juice, and allspice to a boil in a small saucepan over moderate heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Boil until reduced to about 1/4 cup. Cool syrup to lukewarm and discard allspice.
- Purée 2 cups blackberries with all of syrup in a blender. Force purée through a fine sieve into a bowl to remove seeds. Stir remaining cup berries into sauce.
Tips:
- Choose the right blackberries: Use fresh, ripe blackberries for the best flavor. Avoid berries that are bruised or moldy.
- Prepare the blackberries properly: Rinse the blackberries under cold water and remove any stems or leaves.
- Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan: This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the compote from burning.
- Bring the compote to a simmer, not a boil: Simmering will help to preserve the flavor and texture of the blackberries.
- Stir the compote occasionally: This will help to prevent the compote from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Taste the compote and adjust the sweetness as needed: You can add more sugar if you prefer a sweeter compote.
- Let the compote cool completely before using: This will help the compote to thicken and develop its full flavor.

Blackberry compote is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of desserts and dishes. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
