blueberry sauce for steak
I know that blueberry sauce with steak seems a bit unconventional but get ready to have your socks blown off by this heavenly delight! I specifically made this sauce to pair with a Beaujolais-Villages wine that I was working with for a course assignment. My brave "tasting panel" (family and friends) were apprehensive about "blueberry sauce with steak??" but were won over immediately by this delicious little wonder. I sprinkled a few fireweed blossoms and violas (both are edible flowers) from my backyard to bring out the subtle floral notes in the wine. Don't be afraid to be adventurous!!
