Tips:

  • Choose fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries are plump and deep red in color. Avoid cranberries that are soft, mushy, or have brown spots.
  • Wash the cranberries thoroughly: Rinse the cranberries under cold running water before using them.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan: A heavy-bottomed saucepan will help to prevent the sauce from burning.
  • Stir the sauce frequently: Stir the sauce frequently to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the saucepan.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: The sauce is done when the cranberries have popped and the sauce has thickened.
  • Let the sauce cool: Allow the sauce to cool slightly before serving.
  • Serve the sauce warm or cold: Cranberry sauce can be served warm or cold. It is delicious on turkey, chicken, pork, or fish.
