CRANBERRY SAUCE

     CRANB-SAUCE-1 - Homemade cranberry sauce

     Most people don't realize how easy it is to make cranberry
     sauce.  It tastes much better fresh than canned (what
     doesn't?).

INGREDIENTS (Makes a lot)
     1 lb      cranberries
               water
     1 cup     sugar

PROCEDURE
          (1)  Rinse the cranberries and put them into a heavy
               pot.  Add just enough water to cover them.  Stir
               in the sugar.

          (2)  Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until
               most of the cranberries have split open.  This
               will take about 15 minutes. Stir well, then taste
               it, and add more sugar if it's not sweet enough
               for you. If you add more sugar, cook it a little
               longer, still stirring, to make sure that the new
               sugar is completely dissolved.

          (3)  Chill overnight.

          (4)  Eat.

NOTES
     This keeps covered in the refrigerator for quite a long
     time.

RATING
     Difficulty: Easy Time: 20 minutes preparation, overnight
     chilling.  Precision: No need to measure.
