I always think blueberries are a bit over-rated, but I found some relatively cheap ones - and they've been hiding in the fridge for a while. Desperate for a pudding, I first made them into a sauce, with sugar, orange juice, water and orange zest - thickened with a little cornflour. Then I discovered some cream that needed to be used - so whipped that and mixed it in - and a wonderful purple fool emerged... very good with the coconut cake I was making - and generally nice. It occurred to me that a fruit fool like this could make a good layer in a really wonderful trifle... maybe I'll make one in the summer.
