I like my cranberry sauce fairly tart and not cooked too long so the cranberries still have their shape to them. Feel free to play with the proportions or the spices (sometimes clove or nutmeg is good too). Ingredients:
3 cups often 1 bag whole fresh cranberries (rinse and drain) |
1/2 cup water |
1/2 cup orange juice |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 ounce cointreau liqueur or 1 ounce grand marnier |
1 orange, for zest |
1 -2 dash ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Combine water, sugar, orange juice in a saucepan.
2. Bring the liquid to a boil.
3. Add the cranberries to the saucepan.
4. Bring the cranberries to a boil.
5. Add orange liqueur (either Cointreau or Grand Marnier), cinnamon and the zest of one orange.
6. Reduce heat and boil GENTLY for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
7. Serve warm!
