Hi y'all! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving. My mom and I made a ton of tasty food, and I'm going to be sharing some of our recipes. Today is cranberry sauce - we use fresh cranberries and it tastes so much better than the canned type! We basically use the recipe on the back of the Ocean Spray cranberries bag, but we add a little tangerine zest.
Ingredients:
- 2 12-ounce fresh cranberry packages
- 2 cups sugar
- 2 cups water
- zest from 2 tangerines
Yield: approximately 5 cups
Combine the sugar, water, and cranberries in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat and boil gently for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
The sauce should begin to thicken.
We run the sauce through a food mill so it is smooth and not chunky. If you don't have a food mill, you can use a wire strainer and mash the sauce through with a fork.
Allow the sauce to cool and refrigerate until you're ready to serve it.
Enjoy!
