Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds fresh cranberries (8 cups)
3 cooking apples, peeled and chopped (I used granny smith)
2 firm pears, peeled and chopped
2 cups golden raisins
1 1/2 cups to 2 cups raw or granulated sugar (adjust according to how sweet/tart you like it. And keep in mind how sweet your orange liquor is)
2 oranges zested
1 cup fresh orange juice (about 3 oranges)
2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
pinch of salt
1/2 cup orange liquor, such as cointreau or grand mala*

Steps:

  • Add all of the ingredients except the orange liquor, to a large pot. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Allow the mixture to simmer for 35 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. You will know the cranberry sauce is done when most of the cranberries have popped and the sauce has reduced and become thick (see photo in post above).
  • With the heat off stir in the orange liquor. Taste and add more sugar if needed.
  • allow the sauce to mostly cool before transferring to airtight containers and storing in the fridge. Allow it to chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours (or overnight). This recipe is best made up to 2 days in advance so the flavors can really develop. You can make it up to 1 or 2 weeks in advance as it keeps for a long time in the fridge. Serve cold.

THE BEST CRANBERRY SAUCE



The Best Cranberry Sauce image

Our classic cranberry sauce has the ideal texture of tart whole berries suspended in a sweet jammy sauce; we added citrus peel for a little extra brightness. Don't be tempted to skip the salt and and pepper at the end. It may seem a bit odd, but salt brings out the fruitiness of the berries while pepper gives the sauce a warm and spicy finish.

One 12-ounce bag of fresh or frozen cranberries
1/2 cup sugar, plus more as needed

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Empty the cranberries into a saucepan and transfer 1/2 cup to a small bowl. Add the sugar, zest and 2 tablespoons water to the pan and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the cranberries are soft, about 10 minutes. Increase the heat to medium and cook until the cranberries burst, about 12 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the reserved cranberries. Remove the citrus peel. Add sugar, salt and pepper to taste. Cool to room temperature before serving.
