Request for Mayonnaise Cranberries From The Hardware Guy http://www.homehdw.com/products/turkey.html 11-25-06 Top of page

CRANBERRY-APPLESAUCE  (http://chappysmom.typepad.com/bookworm/2005/11/index.html) didn't give 11-25-06

Take a bag of cranberries, put them in a pot with a little orange or cranberry juice just enough to wet the bottom of the pan so things won't stick and burn. Bring up to a boil, then cover, turn down the heat, and cook over medium-low heat until all the berries have popped and are soft. Turn out into a fine mesh strainer (or a food mill, if you're lucky enough to have one) and press all the pulp through the mesh (be sure to scrape the bottom of the strainer to get as much of the pulp as possible). Discard what's left in the strainer, and return the pot to the stove. Add sugar to taste usually between 1/4 and 1/2 cup. And then I cheat a little and use a jar of apple sauce, rather than making my own. (Hey, I believe in doing things from scratch, but homemade applesauce tastes pretty much exactly like the stuff from the store, so I prefer to save my apple peeling and chopping for more important things.) Stir to blend, taste for sweetness. And that's it. Chill until ready. It's got a nice smooth texture, that all-important cranberry zing, and a gorgeous red color. Perfect.
