Okay, I decided that I want to do a couple recipes/tips a week up until Thanksgiving. You know, kind of like a cheat sheet, with a bunch of what you'll need all in one place. I wanted to start with cranberry sauce, searching for a good recipe to share, because I wanted to make it myself this weekend. (I'm roasting my practice turkey this Saturday. Yes, practice turkey. That way I know my thanksgiving one will turn out perfect.) Well, when I found the recipe, with multiple sources all sharing the same, I felt really silly for never trying it before. It couldn't be more simple! Here's how it goes.
All you need are:
-12oz bag of cranberries, rinsed, de-stemmed and picked through.
-1 cup sugar
-1 cup water
Bring water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Carefully stir in your cranberries, and then bring it back up to a boil. Once you've reached a boil, turn it down to simmer and let if sit for 10 minutes or so, stirring occasionally. That's it. Transfer to a bowl and let completely cool: as it does the mixture will thicken.
I don't think I'll ever buy the canned stuff again!
