In preparation for (Canadian) Thanksgiving next weekend I've been trying out cranberry sauce recipes. Giant Tiger, of all places, had whole fresh cranberries for a great price so I got a bunch. The sauces both turned out deliciously well, although the relish was a bit "juicy" like a smoothie, next time I'll leave it on a rougher blend setting. But the combonation of apple and cranberry was a fresh tangy new sensation that I'm going to try in many recipes from now on! I won't be limiting these sauces to the holidays :)
2 cups cranberries
2 cups water
1 cup honey or raw sugar
2 cups water
1 cup honey or raw sugar
Cook berries until the skin pops open, about 5 or 6 min. Bring to a boil, add
honey, and boil 2 minutes. Let stand several hours, then refrigerate.
