I grew up with both my mother's homemade cranberry sauce, and my aunt's canned log version (they would take turns hosting Thanksgiving). I always thought the canned sauce was weird and tacky. Why didn't Auntie mash the log with a fork so it sat more appetizingly in its cut crystal sauce boat? I make my own sauce, now. I mold it in a small ring, and it glistens on a raised compote on a sparkly wreath of sugared rosemary dotted with fresh cranberries. It looks very festive and appeals to both fresh and canned sauce preferers. 🦃
Cranberry sauce is easy to make at home. Cook berries and water in a sauce pan add sugar. The recipe calls for a cup. But you are in control try 1/2 cup of sugar. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes stirring constantly. Berries will break as Abby showed in video. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool before refrigerating. You can eat in cottage cheese or yogurt. It's also good on a Turkey sandwich.

The homemade version definitely seems more appealing to me especially texture wise :)
My son is a food scientist at Ocean Spray. Sending him this!
Omg really?! I remember visiting Ocean Spray in MA as a kid on vacation :)
@@AbbeytheFoodScientist Their campus is apparently quite beautiful. Worth the commute from Boston, where he lives.
Oh, I would love to visit! I always have the most fun visiting different food facilities :)
Wisconsin is the largest producer of cranberries in the US. Oregon is the 3rd largest producer and Washington is the 5th largest producer.
This is a great fun fact about Wisconsin! Not sure it's number 1 in many things ;)
Add some orange juice to your cranberry sauce to balance and make more pronounced flvour.
Ooooh, that does sound super yummy :)
