Last night I made cranberry sauce for the first time. Put some water (less than a cup, I think) in a small pot and dump in a bag of cranberries. Simmer until soft & squish the berries. (Be careful - I had one explode all over the stove & wall.) Add sugar to taste (about a cup?).
It was easy. And fast. And yummy.
I will never buy cranberry sauce again.
I was amazed that it jelled on its own; for some reason, I thought you'd have to add something to make it do that.
Mmm... cranberries.....
