Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition, and scraping down the sides of the bowl.Sift together flour, baking soda, and salt into a medium bowl.

Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture in three additions, alternating with the buttermilk, and beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir in the lemon zest and juice. Gently fold in blueberries.

Pour batter into prepared pan, smoothing the top with a rubber spatula.

Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean and the cake has begun to pull away from the sides of the pan.

Brush the glaze over the surface of the warm cake, and cool to room temperature. Store wrapped in plastic for up to 2 days at room temperature.This recipe yields 10 to 12 servings.
