Kitchen Chemistry: Thanksgiving Cranberry Sauce

Are you prepared for Thanksgiving?

We're still mulling over ways to scale down the feast for our party of two this year. At least one thing is certain- we'll be fixing our signature Cranberry Sauce. Cranberry Sauce really is the gem of the Thanksgiving table, isn't it? This one has a sparkling taste you'll enjoy as well. Beyond spicing up your turkey, it's also beautiful on red meat (we served it with beef at our wedding!), sandwiches, cheese platters, and ice cream. 

We gave out our secret recipe as a thank you to our wedding guests. I thought you might enjoy it as well...
