Recipe Thursday - Cooked Cranberry Salad/Sauce


This is my mother's cranberry sauce modified and adapted to my husband's family's heritage.

1 bag of cranberries, washed and discard any bad ones then dry them
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup of water
1 orange
1 jar of cinnamon sticks

Put the water and sugar into a pan, Add the cranberries. Zest the orange then squeeze as much juice as you can into the pan.

Bring the pan to a boil. Reduce heat and add the jar of cinnamon sticks. Simmer until the cranberries begin to burst and the liquid thickens (around 10 to 15 minutes).

Pour into a serving dish. Cool. Some people like to serve it warm (me) and others like it chilled in the frig for an hour or more.
