Fresh cranberry sauce is a must for your Thanksgiving dinner. This recipe is easy to make in just 20 minutes with 3 ingredients: fresh cranberries, sugar, and water. Add some grated orange zest before serving for an extra boost of flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 package fresh cranberries , 12 ounce
Instructions
-
1
Gather all ingredients.
-
2
Bring water to a boil in a saucepan; add sugar and cook until sugar is dissolved, about 5 minutes.
-
3
Stir cranberries into the saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer until cranberries have popped and sauce is chunky, about 10 minutes or longer for desired consistency. The longer you cook it, the less chunky it will be.

4
Pour sauce into a serving dish or jars and cover until ready to use; the pectin in the cranberries will make the cranberry sauce gel as it cools.

5
Mix cranberry sauce with a fork before serving.

Classic American-Style Potato Salad
A classic potato salad recipe. Most potato salads look and taste better when made with low-starch red boiling potatoes. You can use any size of this variety, but the small new potatoes cook 10 to 15 minutes faster than the larger ones. Choose potatoes that are all roughly the same size, if possible, so they cook in the same time.
