Notes
The exact cooking might vary if you use fresh or frozen blueberries and based on how ripe/firm the fruits were to start with. If using frozen blueberries, you will probably need to add a few minutes to the recommended cooking time to allow for them to thaw in the pot (no need to thaw them prior to making this recipe).
You could also blend the compote directly into the pot, away from the stove. At this point, I recommend tasting the coulis and adjusting the level of sweetness / sourness by adding a little bit more sugar or lemon juice to suit your taste.
If needed, pour it through the sieve a second time to get it really smooth.
