Thread: Cranberry Sauce

I am not usually a big fan of cranberry sauce but decided to try this recipe. WOW! I did cut back the sugar a bit and it was perfect. Will be making this more often.

4 cups fresh cranberries, picked over & rinsed
2 cups Splenda sugar substitute or 2 cups sugar
6 tablespoons water
6 tablespoons fresh orange juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 inches fresh ginger, peeled & cut in 3 pieces (if you don't have fresh ginger, add 1/2 tsp ground ginger with other spices)
1 orange, zest of
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon allspice

Directions:
*Mix together in large pot, cranberries, sugar (or Splenda), water& juice, salt, ginger pieces (not ground) and orange zest.
*Bring to boil and cook about 10 minutes or until all berries have burst.
*Remove from heat and allow to cool 1/2 hour.
*Remove ginger pieces and add cinnamon, ground cloves and all spice.
