Jellied Cranbery Sauce


I have made cranberry sauce in the past and posted it here in the blog.  This time I was looking to make it easier and closer to the version that everyone knows from the can.  I used organic sugar, cranberries and orange in this recipe but conventional ingredients work just as well.  I also use a cranberry sauce mold to make it look festive but a plain bowl works just fine.

Ingredients;

1 cup water
1 cup sugar
3 cups fresh cranberries
zest from 1 orange

Here's how:

Place the water and sugar into a medium sized bowl and bring to a boil.


Once it starts boiling, add the cranberries and orange zest.


Let the mixture simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Remove from the heat.

Pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve placed over a bowl to get all the liquid out of the berries. Use a large spoon to push the liquid through until all all the liquid is through and only pulp is left.  You can also use a food mill for this.


Discard the cranberry pulp left over.

Pour the liquid into a mold or bowl.



Refrigerate 4 hours, overnight or a few days before serving.
