🧂 Ingrediënten

👨🍳 Instructies

Combine the blueberries, water, and sugar in a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer. Stir occasionally, allowing the blueberries to break down and release their juices, and for the sugar to dissolve completely. Simmer for about 10 minutes, until the berries are soft and the liquid is a vibrant purple.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the potato starch and about 1/4 cup (60ml) of cold water until smooth, creating a slurry. This ensures no lumps form. Slowly pour this slurry into the simmering blueberry mixture while whisking continuously. Continue to cook and stir for another 3-5 minutes, until the soup has thickened to your desired consistency. It should coat the back of a spoon.
⏱️ 3-5 minutes - 3
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary. The Blåbärssoppa can be served immediately while warm, or it can be cooled completely and served chilled. For chilling, pour into a container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
⏱️ Immediate (serving) - 4
Serve the Blåbärssoppa warm or cold. It's often enjoyed on its own as a comforting drink or light meal, especially during colder months or as a post-exercise refreshment. A popular choice during the Vasaloppet cross-country ski race.
