it's autumn!

i love cranberry sauce, and i love making it.

i love sweets that are also tart.

i love how easy it is.

i love sneaking little surprises into my recipes.

this year i've made two batches like this:

materials

• 12℥ (one package) fresh cranberries
• ½c orange juice, preferably fresh
• ½c white sugar
• fresh ginger, about the size of your thumb, peeled and whole
• one clove of star anise (i know right!)

procedure

• dump all that shit into a saucepan or small pot. you're only making a little over 2c (about 1L) of stuff.
• bring to a vigorous simmer, stirring occasionally.
• once the cranberries have been melting and popping for a while, and once the sauce starts sticking a little to the bottom of the pan, remove from heat.
• remove the star anise and ginger.
• let sit, then refrigerate or eat warm!

honestly who knows if the infused herbs do anything, but i like the overall taste!
