Tips:
- Choose fresh cranberries. Look for cranberries that are firm, plump, and have a deep red color. Avoid cranberries that are bruised or have soft spots.
- Rinse the cranberries thoroughly before using. This will help to remove any dirt or debris.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the cranberries. This will help to prevent the cranberries from bruising.
- Do not overcook the cranberries. Overcooked cranberries will be mushy and lose their flavor.
- Chill the cranberry salad before serving. This will help to firm up the salad and make it more refreshing.
