The Whole Wheat

Cranberry sauce is definitely a classic American pairing with turkey. It isn’t hard to see why – fruity, bright, & tangy paired with what is often dry & dull. On our table the turkey was anything but dull, and the cranberries still shown brightly! Try different flavors – cranberries are versatile & delicious!

Ingredients:

• 12 oz fresh cranberries (about 1 bag) (or if frozen just don’t defrost before using)
• 3/4 c. sugar
• 1/2 c. ruby Port
• 3-4 strips of tangerine zest
• juice from 2 tangerines

1. In a small sauce pan, bring all ingredients to a simmer over medium heat. Stir until all sugar is dissolved.
2. Continue cooking until cranberries burst and the mixture looks well melded, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and cool completely.
