Cranberry Sauce Recipe- My family is into fresh recipes due to some health issues. This is a great fresh sauce that can be used for anything.
Ingredients
1 cup sugar /splenda
1 cup water
4 cups (1 12-oz package) fresh or frozen cranberries
Optional Pecans, orange peel, raisins, currants, blueberries, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice.
Method
1 Wash and pick over cranberries. In a saucepan bring to a boil water and sugar, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add cranberries, return to a boil. Reduce heat, simmer for 10 minutes or until cranberries burst.
2 At this point you can add all number of optional ingredients. We typically mix in a half a cup of roughly chopped pecans with or without a few strips of orange peel. You can add a cup of raisins or currants. You can add up to a pint of fresh or frozen blueberries for added sweetness. Spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg or allspice can be added too.
3 Remove from heat. Cool completely at room temperature and then chill in refrigerator. Cranberry sauce will thicken as it cools.
Cranberry sauce base makes 2 1/4 cups.

1 bag cranberries
1 cup sweet wine I use Kedem Plum Royal
1cup sugar
1 cinmiman stick
1/2 orange peel julianed
Put it all together and boil for about 25 min. Use a bigger pot than you think you need because it boils over and makes a mess easily.
Gels beautifully so you can put it in a mold.

We always have left over Kedem wine from Yom Tov.

I like Kedem’s Burgandy becasue it has a strong flavor but I find it too dry to drink. It’s good with chicken or lamb. We like semi-sweet wines here at my house. My husband likes to have a variety of wines in the house. He goes to the wine store and buys a few assorted cases at a time.
I made a black and white rolled meat loaf for Yom Tov. My mother used to make a chicken meat loaf with an egg in it for Rosh HaShana. My kids don’t like the egg so I stopped making it like that.

G’MAR CHASIMA TOVA TO ALL!
