I Dreamed a Dream of Blueberry Balsamic Sauce

Have you ever had a craving for something you've never had? You're not totally sure if it's delicious, but it sounds like a good idea in theory? That happened to me and in a rare case of experiments-gone-right, I successfully realized my dream of pork tenderloin with blueberry balsamic sauce.

I wish I could say it was a fancy, complicated recipe whipped up from fresh blueberries and a painstaking balsamic vinegar reduction. But no, this recipe is super easy and will elevate a simple pork tenderloin to an impressive dish that seems like it took a serious investment of time and energy. 

There are a lot of ways to go about this, and the internet is predictably teeming with suggestions, but here's what I did.

Blueberry Balsamic Sauce

Ingredients

• 3 teaspoons Blueberry jam or preserves
• 2 teaspoons Balsamic Glaze (you can usually buy this in the vinegar aisle and it is worth every penny!)
• A dash of red wine vinegar

Directions

1. Let the mixture come to a boil on medium-high heat, then turn it down to a simmer when you reach the appropriate consistency.
2. Give it a taste. Add ingredients as needed to get the right sweet and tangy flavor.
3. Spoon over the meat/veggies/whatever of choice. 

It was so good even a picky Sean would eat it!
