A delightful mixed berry dessert with a tangy lemon butter sauce, perfect for any occasion.
Combine the sugar and a quarter cup of water in a large nonreactive sauté pan over medium heat.
Stir constantly to ensure the sugar dissolves evenly and doesn't burn.
Bring the mixture to a boil and let it cook for 2 minutes.
Keep an eye on the syrup to prevent it from caramelizing.
Add the strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, lemon juice, and salt to the pan.
Gently stir to coat the berries evenly with the syrup.
Return the mixture to a boil, then add the butter and swirl the pan until the butter melts.
Swirling the pan helps to emulsify the butter into the sauce.
Serve the berries and sauce on dessert plates, optionally adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream or yogurt.
Serve immediately while the sauce is warm for the best experience.
