Blueberry Preserves
Blueberry preserves are a sweetened fruit spread made by cooking whole or crushed blueberries with sugar and pectin, retaining visible fruit pieces for a chunky texture distinct from smoother jams or jellies. While the cooking process concentrates the berries' natural antioxidants like anthocyanins, the added sugar significantly increases carbohydrate content compared to fresh fruit. This spread is commonly used on toast, pastries, or in sauces, offering intense berry flavor but requiring portion awareness for low-sugar diets.
