For dinner tonight we had....

[conuly]

Blueberry pancakes with blueberry syrup
Cooked apricots with yogurt and honey
Sausages

VERY tasty, and my pancakes came out PERFECTLY, every last one. Yay!

But now, here's a question Ana asked me and I couldn't quite answer. Why is it that when I bake (or cook in pancakes) blueberries they turn blueish-greenish, but when I make them into syrup they're all purple? Is it the baking powder or...?

Apparently, Anthocyanins in blueberries are pH sensitive.

That is the exact same link I got on LJ! Great minds and all that, huh?

In my case, I think Google deserves the credit, not me.
