I think my sauce is closer to a preserve, but I like my berries cooked down a bit. It's a texture preference. ;) If you like your berries chunkier just reduce the cook time. This sauce is very, very tart. You can up the sugar is you need a bit more sweetness to it. Personally, I like the whole exploding taste bud sensation.
Cranberry Sauce
12oz bag fresh cranberries, rinsed
2/3 cup sugar
1 cup orange juice
1 tbls orange zest
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
Combine everything in a sauce pan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. When berries have cooked down and the sauce has thickened, remove from heat. Cool.
wow! This seems delicious!
