This is Cranberry Sauce for Thanksgiving with a difference! It will wow your guests as it stands up, wobbly on one of your favorite seasonal plates. I couldn’t eat turkey without cranberry sauce and this recipe is special to me as it was passed down to me from my great-aunt.
Start by boiling orange juice, cranberry juice and honey in a large pot. Add the cranberries and cook for 15 minutes. The key for this sauce is to stop cooking it after 15 minutes as the pectin will start to break down and the sauce will not set properly. Place in a 3 cup mold and refrigerate. This sauce will keep for up to a week.
To make Cranberry Sauce for Thanksgiving, you will need the following ingredients:
Place the orange juice, cranberry juice and honey in a large pot.
Bring to a boil over medium high heat and simmer for 5 minutes.
Mix in the cranberries and continue to cook for 15 minutes while stirring occasionally, until the berries burst and the sauce begins to thicken. Remove from the heat and leave to cool for about 5 minutes.
Spoon the cranberry sauce into a 3 cup mold. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours and up to overnight.
To serve, invert the mold onto a seasonal plate. Serve with your Thanksgiving dinner.
