Berries, Berries, Berries
Irene Khin Wong
This season there has been an abundance of berries. I just came
back from my godmother's beach house and she had blueberry
and blackberry patches growing in her garden. So plump and
luscious, she simply made them into jam.
Our kitchen here in Saffron 59 has been making warm berry cobbler with lemon zests, crisp toppings, and if you want to be a little fancy, add simple syrup with slivers of kaffir lime leaves, fresh lemongrass slices, assorted crushed colorful pepper corns, fragrant star anise and a cinnamon stick while the syrup is hot.
With flavors ranging from mildly sweet to tart and tangy, fresh berries are simply delicious
on their own.
