I have been perfecting my menu for Thanksgiving and Cranberry sauce is one of the least expensive but most impressive dishes to bring to anyone's table.
Here is my simple but tasty recipe for this classic.
1 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1 12 oz package fresh cranberries
2 granny smith apples
a pinch of ground cloves
a generous pinch of cinnamon
Peel, core, and chop the apples.
In a medium saucepan bring the cranberries, sugar, apples, and water to a boil, stirring occasionally.
When it is boiling drop the heat down so you have a very gentle boil and cook for 10 minutes. Probably at about medium heat, depending on your stove.
Remove from heat and stir in your spices. Let cool, then refrigerate overnight.
I make this year round for turkey sandwiches and pork chops but it's always raved over at Thanksgiving. Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a month.
Enjoy!
