Thanksgiving cranberry sauce is usually a polarizing facet at Thanksgiving.
It appears you might be both within the “I like it” camp or “I don’t look after it” camp. I used to be within the latter camp for a few years till I found cranberry sauce choices exterior of the canned model you can slice with a knife.
Level is, in the event you’ve by no means had cranberry sauce past the can, I urge you attempt the do-it-yourself model. It’s tremendous easy to make and versatile, too.
Description
Add ginger to your do-it-yourself cranberry sauce to make it further particular.
- 12 ounce bag (about 3 cups) recent cranberries
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2/3 cup honey
- 2 teaspoons minced recent ginger
- 2 teaspoons orange zest
- Rinse cranberries and add to medium pot. Add water and orange juice, convey to a boil.
- Cut back to a simmer, add in honey and ginger, combine nicely. Prepare dinner for 10 – quarter-hour – cranberry skins will begin popping and the flesh will begin to cook dinner right into a sauce.
- Take away from warmth and let sit 5 minutes. Combine in orange zest.
Notes
If you need a smoother sauce, mash with a potato masher.
Should you aren’t into ginger, depart it out. Or add a cinnamon stick as an alternative. Swap orange zest for lemon. Make it your individual new Thanksgiving custom. Or maybe your new favourite sandwich unfold.
