275034 Mon Nov 22 18:35:37 -0800 2004 27 31 Home Cooking 0 1447914 i need some recipes for cranberry sauce Mon Nov 22 18:35:37 -0800 2004 0 hildegard 1 1447921 Here's a 'Cranberry Relish' we appreciate. 8 cups cranberry juice coctail 3 cups dried cranberries 3 cups red seedless grapes, halved 2 tablespoons, fresh lemon juice 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel (zest) Boil juice until reduced by one cup. Pour over cranberries (in bowl). Coat well. Cool & refrigerate. Before serving, add grapes, juice & peel. Mon Nov 22 19:14:07 -0800 2004 1447914 0 Lanny 1 1447922 I just use the one from the Ocean Spray bag, and add some coarsely chopped, peeled apple for flavor, and to add some pectin to thicken up the sauce. Mon Nov 22 19:17:11 -0800 2004 1447914 0 LBQT 1 1447924 I have 2 to offer. I will never go back to canned cranberry sauce on our Thanksgiving table: Cabernet Cranberries 1 cup sugar 1 cup cabernet sauvignon (any kind that is good to drink is fine--do NOT use 'cooking wine' never, never ever!) 1 12 ounce bag of fresh cranberries 2 teaspoons freshly grated orange or tangerine zest 1 3" cinnamon stick In a large saucepan, combine sugar and wine, stirring over medium heat til sugar is dissolved. Add in the cranberries, orange/tangerine zest and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil, then REDUCE heat to simmer. Cover partially (lid slightly off) and simmer gently for 10-15 minutes or til all cranberry skins have popped. Remove from heat, stir. Allow to cool to room temperature. Remove cinnamon stick (so delicious to lick the sauce off it!) and discard. Serve or refrigerate til later. (Tastes best at room temp or warmed up--my opinion.) Rum Cranberries 1 12 ounce bag fresh cranberries 3/4 cup dried sour cherries 1/3 cup sugar 2/3 cup red currant jelly 2/3 cup water 1/4 cup dark rum In a large saucepan, mix everything except for rum. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer; partially cover with lid and simmer til all cranberry skins have popped. Remove pan from heat and stir in rum. Allow to cool to room temperature and then refrigerate overnight. Mon Nov 22 19:27:32 -0800 2004 1447914 0 Val 2 1447932 I made those Cabernet Cranberries over the weekend. I had gotten some baguette and brie and put the cranberries on top, to die for! Mon Nov 22 20:25:53 -0800 2004 1447924 0 Amy 3 1447942 So glad you loved them...I made some 3 weeks ago because I couldn't wait to eat them for T-day. I will be trying the rum recipe for our Thanksgiving. Mon Nov 22 21:08:42 -0800 2004 1447932 0 Val 2 1447938 I made the Cabernet Cranberries for Canadian Thanksgiving and it was unbelievable. Will never go back to regular. Mon Nov 22 20:34:23 -0800 2004 1447924 0 Nyleve 2 1448176 Your cabernet cranberry sauce rocks! Many thanks for sharing. Wed Nov 24 15:22:56 -0800 2004 1447924 0 quiz wrangler 1 1447928 these are fantastic and so easy. I just made them last night and couldn't stop eating it after it cooled. Orange/Ginger Whole Cranberry Sauce 16 oz cranberries (note most cranberry pkgs are 12oz) 2 cups sugar 1 cup fresh orange juice 1 TBsp finely grated orange rind 1+ Tbsp finely minced ginger (I put in 2 Tbsp last night) Cook over medium heat until the cranberries pop, about 10-15 min. Can be made one week ahead, bring to room temp before serving. Mon Nov 22 19:45:04 -0800 2004 1447914 0 Celeste 1 1447939 This is by far the best cranberry sauce I have ever had. When asked what her favorite part of the Thanksgiving dinner was, my 6-year old daughter told her teacher "My Mom's Cranberry Sauce".

Here's my recipe: 1 cup sugar 1/2 cup raspberry vinegar 1/4 cup orange juice 1 12-oz bag cranberries 1 tbsp orange zest cinnamon stick Put sugar, vinegar, and juice in a saucepan and bring to a boil (stir to dissolve sugar). Add remaining ingredients, reduce heat, and simmer (partially covered) about 10 minutes, or until cranberries burst. Mon Nov 22 21:14:19 -0800 2004 1447914 0 Caitlin McGrath 2 1448547 Killer recipe- we loved it. Thanks. Sun Nov 28 18:57:40 -0800 2004 1447943 0 Tom Hall 3 1448548 Glad you liked it! This year, I threw in a handful of dried carnaberries with the fresh ones for textural variation, and like the effect a lot. Sun Nov 28 19:12:51 -0800 2004 1448547 0 Caitlin McGrath 1 1447947 Here's an easy one that I use and people love it... Open 3 cans of whole berry cranberry sauce. Add the zest of 1/4 lemon and 1/4 lime, 1/4 cup fresh squeezed orange and horseradish to taste. I like at least 3 TBL. Mix it all up well...that's it. Mon Nov 22 22:43:19 -0800 2004 1447914 0 Chuck 2 1447957 I do something similiar but with just two of the ingredients, just the whole cranberry jelly from a can and then Gold's horseradish to taste, it's so easy and shockingly good. Tue Nov 23 10:32:44 -0800 2004 1447947 0 Keri T. 3 1447959 For those who are lazy and don't want to make their own (or who want to try one to mimic or copy), Stonewall Kitchen makes a version of this called cranberry horseradish sauce. I tried some this past weekend and it was pretty good. See link below.

That's where I got the idea fro my cranberry recipe...from Stonewall. They have some terrific products, but soooo pricy. They make this incredible roasted garlic jelly...Amazing. Wed Nov 24 14:54:48 -0800 2004 1447959 0 Chuck 1 1447948 that recipe that was posted a few weeks ago for cabneret cranberry sauce wa dynamite Mon Nov 22 23:00:13 -0800 2004 1447914 0 Candy 1 1447954 The common theme among all these recipes posted is that none have any salt in them. All would be improved by 1/4 tsp. or 1/2 tsp. of salt. Dunno why cranberry sauce/relish recipes typically leave out the salt, but it does improve things. Tue Nov 23 09:41:44 -0800 2004 1447914 0 Dorothy 1 1447961 On a related topic, can I make my sauce tonight? I'm planning a pretty simple cooked sauce of cranberries, sugar, port, some orange zest, a little clove maybe. Do I need to wait until tomrrow night? Tue Nov 23 10:51:05 -0800 2004 1447914 0 curiousbaker 2 1447962 Three days ahead is the number I have. I'm making mine tonight and usually taste it again the next day when it has cooled completely. Sometimes it's too tart and I need to add a little maple syrup. Tue Nov 23 11:10:41 -0800 2004 1447961 0 Daisy's 2 1447969 Absolutely, make it tonight. Cranberry sauce keeps very well. I've already made mine. Tue Nov 23 11:52:16 -0800 2004 1447961 0 Caitlin McGrath 2 1447980 Now is fine: cranberry-citrus juice is so acid you need not worry about spoilage for T-Day. Tue Nov 23 13:08:02 -0800 2004 1447961 0 Karl S. 1 1447965 I take a bag of fresh cranberries, two jalapeno peppers without the seeds, and then add sugar to taste. Sometimes I will add orange zest if I have a fresh orange or maybe a shot of orange juice. I have used Steen syrup, honey or maple syrup in lieu of the sugar. I know the jalapeno sounds weird but you really don't feel much heat. One more thing. Make this up as soon as possible. I like it to age 2-3 days before serving. Tue Nov 23 11:22:06 -0800 2004 1447914 0 jlawrence01 1 1448010 The one on the bag. Seriously. Tue Nov 23 16:08:30 -0800 2004 1447914 0 Adrian 1 1448114 I found this on Epicurious while looking for the cranberry conserve recipe I use from an old Bon Appetit, which calls for fresh OJ and grated orange rind for the liquid and toasted pecans added at the end. This port version sounds good though...

Unlike a standard chinois, it will expel a lot of dried-out solids (which you can run through a few times to get all the gooey goodness until they're totally dried out). Doing this gives the sauce a very smooth texture. Personally, I don't like chunky cranberry sauce at all, and this has been smooth enough to convert the jelly-sauce addicts in my family.
