Lemon Bars, With Blueberries in a Supporting Role
Its a classic, arguably essential pairing, but striking the right balance can be tricky.
'The best lemon bars strike a perfect balance: Theyre both sweet and tangy, their sharp, creamy centers anchored by a crisp, buttery crust. My desert-island dessert, theyre the one confection I can imagine eating ad infinitum or, at least until the rescue plane arrives.
Because maintaining that sweet-tart balance is so essential, lemon bars arent the kind of loosey-goosey recipe that can take a lot of variation and still turn out well (chocolate chip cookies, Im looking at you). As much as lemon-friendly ingredients like berries, herbs and almonds beckon, adding them can potentially throw things off-kilter, unless its done in a skilled and considered way.
And that is why I waited so long to bake something that seems so obvious in retrospect: lemon-blueberry bars.'>>>
