Blueberry lavender jam

Serious Eats / Lucy Baker

Remember when you first realized lavender was delicious? I was at a farmers market and bought a package of shortbread cookies studded with purple buds and lightly sprinkled with sea salt. The delicate flavor and floral perfume blew me away. Where had lavender been all my culinary life? In this recipe it transforms ordinary blueberry jam into a preserve that is downright romantic.

Before we get into the recipe how about a little lavender lesson? Lavender is a member of the mint family (along with rosemary and thyme). There are many different varieties but the most common is English lavender which is prized for its sweetness.
