Cranberry Sauce
From the Kitchen of Barbara Jean

Ingredients
• 1 bag of fresh cranberries
• ¾ cup water
• 1 cup sugar
• ¼ cup orange juice
• 2 tsp. orange zest

1) Wash cranberries and throw away any unworthy berries. (Hard = sweet / Soft = bitter)

2) Bring water, orange juice, and sugar to a boil in a medium saucepan and stir to dissolve the sugar. Be careful not to let mixture boil over because it will make a sticky mess.

3) Add cranberries and zest. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 10 - 15 minutes or until the sauce thickens slightly.

4) Remove from heat and place in a bowl.

5) Chill sauce and it will thicken as it gets colder.

Just had this for the first time Thanksgiving and it was a huge hit. My wife has said it will be a staple from now on. An added plus is how easy it was to make.

Another outstanding recipe!
