RECIPE: My Favorite Cranberry Sauce

My MIL found this in her local newspaper where it was called "Cranberry Salad" and its source was the Farmers Almanac. It isn't a salad so I've just renamed it Cranberry Sauce and love it.

Cranberry Sauce

1-1/2 cups water

1 bag of cranberries

Bring water to a boil. Add cranberries and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until berries pop.

Add:

2 cups sugar

1 cup crushed pineapple

1 seeded orange, separated and chopped

2 Tbsps grated orange rind

½ cup orange marmalade

***************************

1/2 cup walnuts, chopped

Directions:

Simmer mixture for 20 minutes. Let cool. Add ½ cup walnuts. Makes 5 cups.

Source: Farmers Almanac

My note: I drain the crushed pineapple in a sieve. Also, after zesting, I find it easier to cut thick slices of the orange, then cut off the peel and cut out the sections of the orange. Sometimes I cut back a little on the sugar.
