As a child, I did not like cranberry sauce. It looked weird in its jellied can shape, and I just didn’t like the flavor. In contrast, my children love cranberry sauce! Freshly made is much preferred to [amazon_link id=”B001ELL2OM” target=”_blank” ]organic canned[/amazon_link], especially considering the BPA risk in tin cans. Here is a basic, simple recipe for cranberry sauce. Remember to make this ahead of time, as it needs to chill for a few hours to thicken.
Basic Cranberry Sauce
Over medium heat in a saucepan heat:
- 2 cups water
- 2 cups organic sugar
Stir occasionally and boil for five minutes. Add:
- 4 cups fresh, organic cranberries
- 1 Tablespoon grated orange peel
Return to boil until cranberries pop (about five minutes). Cool and refrigerate for at least three hours.
I just spent a small fortune on organic cranberries, but it is worth it to serve this delicious fresh cranberry sauce at our holiday meals.
Delicious recipe.Thanks for posting.
