This was my first time making cranberry sauce from scratch. This turned out fabulous! It ended up cooking for about 2 hours, but well worth it. Won't be buying shop bought again...

You'll never buy cranberry sauce from a jar again.

This was a hit - it had a great holiday flavour that my family loved. Make sure you taste throughout; you may want to add a little more brown sugar. I don't think you can really mess up this really great recipe. Also, it makes A LOT of sauce.

This sauce has a very "robust" flavour that was too strong for some of our family - but I enjoyed it. My only warning is that you need to hold the cranberries down with your hand(s) or something else to determine when you've added enough water. I forgot that cranberries float and added too much before I realised they were floating which resulted in additional cooking time to get the extra liquid to evaporate.
