Step 1
Add blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and salt to a medium saucepan.
Step 2
Stir once to combine. Heat over medium until the mixture begins to bubble, ~4 minutes.
Step 3
Reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until berries burst and sauce thickens, ~6 minutes.
Step 4
Remove from heat. Let cool for 2 minutes — the compote will thicken as it cools.
Step 5
Transfer to a bowl or jar. Serve warm or at room temperature.
