Cranberry Sauce Recipe

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 zest. 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.
