PEAR CRANBERRY SAUCE
We don't care for regular cranberry sauce, so I usually perk it up with other fruit. This pear version is the one my family requests most often. It's sweet, tangy and a beautiful ruby-red color. Since it keeps well in the refrigerator, I often make it in advance.

Steps:
- Bring water, sugar, ginger, cinnamon, and salt to boil in medium nonreactive saucepan over high heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve sugar. Stir in cranberries and pears; return to boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer until saucy, slightly thickened, and about two-thirds of berries have popped open, about 5 minutes. Transfer to nonreactive bowl, cool to room temperature, and serve. (Can be covered and refrigerated up to 7 days; let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before serving.)
Tips:
- Select the right cranberries: Fresh, plump cranberries are the best choice for this recipe. Avoid cranberries that are bruised or have soft spots.
- Prepare the pears properly: Peel and core the pears before adding them to the sauce. Cut the pears into small pieces so that they cook evenly.
- Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger adds a delicious zing to the sauce. If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use ground ginger, but it won't be as flavorful.
- Cook the sauce over low heat: This will help to prevent the sauce from burning and will allow the flavors to develop fully.
- Let the sauce cool slightly before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld together and will make the sauce easier to handle.
Conclusion:
This cranberry sauce with pears and fresh ginger is a delicious and easy-to-make addition to your holiday feast. The combination of sweet and tart cranberries, juicy pears, and spicy ginger creates a unique and flavorful sauce that will be sure to impress your guests. Whether you serve it with roasted turkey, chicken, or pork, this sauce is sure to be a hit.
