# Cranberry Sauce

1. Combine (680 g)[cranberries], (200 g)[water], (250 g)[granulated sugar], and (6 g)[salt] in a small saucepan.
2. Set over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
3. Once boiling, stir occasionally and cook 10–15 minutes, until most of the cranberries have burst and the mixture has thickened slightly.
4. Remove from heat, allow to cool.
5. Then refrigerate until it's time to serve.

I doubled the recipe here from what you saw in the video (2 bags of cranberries instead of 1) to feed a larger crowd. That said, if your family likes a lot of cranberry sauce or you want leftovers, double THIS recipe for an even bigger batch. This is a great recipe to make a day or two before Thanksgiving to save time and space on the stove. Also, I prefer a chunky texture to my cranberry jelly, but if you like yours smooth, press it through a fine-mesh strainer while still warm.
