Provided by Tyler Florence

Time 25m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

Two 8-ounce packages cranberries, fresh or frozen
1 orange, zest cut into strips and juiced
1/2 cup sugar
1 cinnamon stick

Steps:

  • Put all the ingredients into a saucepan over medium heat and simmer until the cranberries burst and the sauce thickens, about 15 to 20 minutes. Serve at room temperature or cool and refrigerate. Remove the cinnamon stick before serving.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients beforehand: This will make the cooking process much smoother and quicker. Measure out all of your ingredients and chop any vegetables or fruits that need to be chopped before you start cooking.
  • Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries have a much tart flavor than frozen or canned cranberries, which will give your sauce a more vibrant flavor.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: Cranberry sauce is best when it is cooked just until the cranberries are softened and have burst. Overcooking the sauce will make it too thick and jammy.
  • Adjust the sweetness to your liking: The amount of sugar in this recipe can be adjusted to your liking. If you prefer a sweeter sauce, add more sugar. If you prefer a tarter sauce, add less sugar.
  • Serve the sauce warm or cold: Cranberry sauce can be served warm or cold. If you are serving it warm, reheat it gently over low heat until it is warmed through. If you are serving it cold, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Bonnie's Cranberry Orange Sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that is perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas, or any other special occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you serve it warm or cold, this sauce is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
