Cranberry recipe?

[WeHeartLabs]

I know this is going to sound stupid...but how do you make cranberry sauce from real cranberries? I am having Thanksgiving dinner this year, and I don't want to serve canned. Anyone have a good recipe for Cranberry sauce?

Just add enough water to keep them from burning and simmer slow till done with sugar to taste.

Some of the best are the simple ones.

Put a bag of fresh cranberries in a food processor, throw in a whole orange - peel and all, and some sugar. Process until it looks like a relish.

I follow the directions on the back of the package of cranberries. I also spice it up a little by adding fresh orange peel and some cinnamon. I'm with you I don't like the canned anymore now that I discovered making it fresh

I just boil a bag of cranberries in a cup of water, a cup of orange juice and sugar. Lot's of sugar!

I boil until the berries pop and then chill. It comes out fine every time.

Love the orange idea, ladies. I'm going to make a big batch this weekend and then let them set for Thursday.

My Dad used to make candied orange peel and then he would add that to the cranberries. I just add the orange to the cranberries following the package direction as well. I add the rind as well!
