 A classic. There should be a green bean casserole in the background as well. | |||

My mom too. But I don’t get it. It’s soooo much better when real and it’s trivially easy to make and can be made well in advance.

YES. I just made my cranberry/ginger/orange relish last night. Trivial to do. | |||

Or you could have your homemade cranberry sauce, but in a can: https://food52.com/blog/9084-h...berry-sauce-in-a-can

Making scratch made cranberry jelly look like you bought it in a can is just quirky enough to try.  Meanwhile that website, Food 52, has a podcast I really like called “Burnt Toast”. They cover food subjects no one else would ever think of - like food fights. Worth a listen.

I don’t think I’ve ever had homemade cranberry *sauce* but my mom always made homemade cranberry relish. She taught me how to make it so I could make it myself I suppose, but since we’ve been done here, we buy cranberry relish at the local Publix. They make it with just enough orange. It is soooo good.

We had both a homemade cranberry sauce (made by Mr. AM’s cousin and sent to us from New York), and a bowl with CANberry sauce, which is my family tradition. Just like Mom opened.

It's the texture for me. Home made texture, is yuck, and often too strong. I still like moms canned!

I brought Cindysphinx's bourbon cranberry sauce that I made in the morning to the dinner I attended. There was canned sauce there..I watched as my daughter in law packed up the left overs..The canned needed a much bigger tupperware just sayin'. I never eat the canned stuff..ick.

I was on a work trip, so no bourbon cranberry sauce this year. Instead, I asked LS to make it using the recipe on the bag. Trouble is, I had bought a Costco sized bag, figuring I’d use the extra to make muffins or something. But he used the whole bag! Um. We have a lot of extra cranberry sauce. | |||

It freezes.

And it is great on top of cheddar cheese and crackers.  I canned some of it last year and Oldest used that to bake in into an apple, cranberry, chard crisp.
