Berry Sauce

Edible mountain berries include blackberry, chokecherry, gooseberry, thimble berry, wild strawberry, serviceberry, sugar bush berry, lemonade berry, huckleberry, elderberry and raspberry. For this recipe, I have used commercial raspberries, elderberries, dried blueberries and 1/4 c currants.

l package fresh raspberries or other fresh berries
1/4 c currants
1/4 c dried blueberries
1 T dried elderberries
1 t cornstarch
1 c water

Mix and cook to a boil and simmer until the piquant mixture becomes slightly thick. Cool in a large bowl or several small individual bowls with berry leaves surrounding. This mixture can be used like cranberry sauce with various entrees or with ice cream as a dessert.
