Ingredients

2 cups fresh blackberries
0.25 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 pinch salt

Instructions

In a saucepan, combine fresh blackberries, granulated sugar, fresh lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Gently toss the ingredients together and let them sit for about 5 minutes to macerate.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the compote has slightly thickened and reduced.
Take the saucepan off the heat and allow the blackberry compote to cool slightly before serving. It will continue to thicken as it cools. Refrigerate any leftovers for later use.
