Frozen blueberries can be substituted for fresh, just be sure to thaw and drain them first. We particularly like this compote with our lemon-buttermilk pound cake and ricotta cheesecake—rice pudding, or Greek yogurt.

Not too sweet
I didn't have lavender so I substituted fresh rosemary, which was a mistake because it was difficult to fish out all the detached rosemary pieces. Made for the ricotta semolina cheesecake, but also had a bit with cottage cheese and it was delicious.

Can I can this like jam to give it as gifts?

Hi Elizabeth -

Sure, but make sure your recipients know to keep it in the refrigerator since it contains fresh ingredients and isn't properly canned like jam.

Best,

This was delicious. The lavender did not overpower but gave a nice complexity.
