cranberry sauce
While I must admit, I prefer the canned stuff (shocker, it’s true)… not everyone does, and I do make my own as well.
Ingredients:
2 lbs fresh cranberries, rinsed and squishy ones tossed
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup grand marnier
1 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
zest of 1 orange
Directions:
Add all ingredients to a medium sized sauce pan. Cover with water.
Bring liquid to a boil. Turn down to simmer, stirring consistently, until all liquid has been absorbed and cranberries have popped, and jellied.
Let cool. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
This is a great one to make a couple of days ahead, as the flavors will only get better.
