Instructions
- In a saucepan, over medium heat, add the blackberries, sugar, salt, lemon juice, and 1/4 cup of water. Cook on low to medium heat until all the sugar has dissolved. Use a vegetable masher to mash some of the fruit.

- Combine the remaining water with cornstarch. Add it to the blackberries. Continue to cook on low heat until the filling is thick and glossy. Remove and let cool for a while. Pro tip - Cornstarch can settle to the bottom of the water. So, you must stir it just before adding it to the saucepan.1 tbsp Cornstarch , ⅓ cup Water
