i copied this from the gemini
server at log.aviary.biz. i took that down, so here’s the poorly
formatted remnants rendered as if it were markdown!
i love cranberry sauce, and i love making it. i love sweets that are
also tart. i love how easy it is. i love sneaking little surprises into
my recipes. this year i’ve made two batches like this:
materials
- 12â„¥ (one package) fresh cranberries
- ½c orange juice, preferably fresh
- ½c white sugar
- fresh ginger, about the size of your thumb, peeled and whole
- one clove of star anise (i know right!)
procedure
- dump all that shit into a saucepan or small pot. you’re only making
a little over 2c (about 1L) of stuff.
- bring to a vigorous simmer, stirring occasionally.
- once the cranberries have been melting and popping for a while, and
once the sauce starts sticking a little to the bottom of the pan, remove
from heat.
- remove the star anise and ginger.
- let sit, then refrigerate or eat warm!
honestly who knows if the infused herbs do anything, but i like the
overall taste!
