Preparation: | I use a bag of cranberries, the juice of 1 orange into a cup measurement, then fill up the rest of the cup with water.
I finely grate the rind of the orange into the water, add 1 cup of sugar, then boil the cranberries until they are the right consistency. |

Every year I make cranberry sauce, since I was about 7 years old and it's always met with skepticism when I'm a guest in someone's home. One such host shall remain nameless as the family is known to the list. I arrived at the home to find the veritable can of berries on a plate sitting there -- ridges and all. It was tucked away in the back, but there nonetheless. I put mine in the front and it was eaten. The can was not. Scott asked, "Why do you want an orange?!" I explained why -- "Ewww, gross!" Once again, he was converted. |
