EASY CRANBERRY
SAUCE
MAKES ABOUT 2 CUPS
4 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
½ cup water
1 cup sugar
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
Combine all the ingredients in a medium saucepan, bring
to a boil over medium-high heat and cook, stirring
occasionally with a wooden spoon, until the berries start
to pop. Mash the berries against the side of the pan with
the spoon, then continue to cook, stirring occasionally,
until the berries are completely broken down and have
achieved a jam-like consistency. Remove from the heat
and allow to cool for about 30 minutes.
- Stir in water in 1-tablespoon increments to adjust to the
desired consistency.
