Cranberry Sauce, Version Two

Cranberry Sauce, Version Two is bright and glossy with a lively sweet-tart balance that highlights the natural tang of fresh cranberries. It sets up into a smooth, spoonable texture that pairs beautifully with roasted meats or holiday sides, and it’s just as welcome spread on sandwiches or spooned over desserts.
