Tips:
- When choosing cranberries, select firm, plump berries that are deep red in color. Avoid any cranberries that are soft, bruised, or have brown spots.
- To prepare the cranberries, rinse them thoroughly under cold water and then pat them dry with a clean towel.
- If you are using a food processor to chop the cranberries, be sure to pulse them in short bursts to avoid over-processing.
- When measuring the sugar, be sure to use a measuring cup that has been leveled off with a knife.
- To test if the conserve is ready, place a small amount on a chilled plate. If the conserve wrinkles when you push your finger through it, it is ready.
- Store the conserve in a clean, sterilized jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
