Just a guess, although I've never done it. Put an air hole in the bottom of the can, or just remove both the top and bottom??? Easy is the Word. Ingredients 4 servings 4 cups frozen cranberries or lingonberries. 1 cup granulated sugar Do this Stir together the berries with the sugar. Let them stand at room temperature for about 6 hours. Stir occasionally. |

Correct, air hole in the bottom of the can, it's that or tap away at the bottom of the can with the heel of ones hand, all while holding the can with another hand above where one wants the cranberries to drop to. You can buy raw cranberries or canned, canned is either jellied or not jellied, I've had all 3, I'm not picky... The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Any other cooking enthusiasts having a house full of family this year? Whatcha cookin'? (Besides turkey, of course...) 2+ kilos of cut-up apples are macerating in light brown cane sugar in the fridge:) Keeping them company are 2 turkeys that just came out of deep-freeze (relax folks, this is Europe... the turkeys are only 4 kilos each). This is my first ever attempt at cooking Thanksgiving dinner, so wish me luck! Oh, and the Turkeys are going to be cooked whole on the BBQ, so wish me luck! Oh, oh and the future in-laws (just the Mothers) are going to be meeting each other for the first time! Did I say wish me luck?;) So apple pie in a cast iron chicken-fryer. Cornbread in a cast-iron skillet. Cobs on the grill... and my not-famous-but-really-really-should-be mashed potatoes with smoked provolone. And finally, the only jar of cranberries I could score in this town. So just the basics for this year:) |

Did I say wish me luck?;) If I were you, I would flip through a Bartender's Guide and find a recipe for a particularly strong house drink. I never have my family over without serving cocktails. Even if they are coming over for brunch, I pour a everybody a round of brunch drinks. |

I don't know if any of you have a Kroger where you live, but I've consistently found their generic versions of things to be very good, if not better than the "original". Case in point is their raisin bran. More raisins, and less than 1/2 the price of Kellogg's. There's really very little I buy name brand now, but I did buy my Ocean Spray jellied cranberry sauce. :~) The mind is a weird and mysterious place |

Cooked bacon, yeah that would do the trick, still it is or was a great looking cake, glad someone took some pics of it before the cake, slithered off. The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Just a guess, although I've never done it. Put an air hole in the bottom of the can, or just remove both the top and bottom??? I've had freshly-cooked cranberries. I don't really like them because the peels give it a texture I don't like. Take the peels out* and I'd probably lie it. *No idea how to do this or if it would worth the time ~Sue~ |

Just a guess, although I've never done it. Put an air hole in the bottom of the can, or just remove both the top and bottom??? So you don't like the texture of blue berries as well? Cranberries don't need "cooking". Only sugar added. The texture will become like jam after some hours. No peels to take out:) |

...*No idea how to do this or if it would worth the time I actually like the texture of peels in a cooked fresh cranberry sauce, but if you wanted it smooth you could simply put the mixture through a food mill. |

Ok, a bit late to the party but... What started out as an attempt to grow a few Serranos turned into a craze a few years back and now I've got over 20 different varieties of chili seeds. Don't have the reaper but I do have a bunch of different Bhuts and my favorite 7 pods that haven't been mentioned yet. Not just superhots though, pretty much the whole range of the Scoville scale. If anybody would like a few seeds I'd be more than happy to send them for free:) |

Just a guess, although I've never done it. Put an air hole in the bottom of the can, or just remove both the top and bottom??? Interesting comparison. I like blueberries, but I have never had, say, blueberry pie, or blueberries cooked like cranberries as a sauce. I don't think I've ever had blueberry jam (although I believe I have had blueberry jelly). I couldn't say whether I'd like them that way or not. I have only had blueberries in things like muffins and scones. I've never "felt" the peel when eating those foods. ~Sue~ |

Oh, oh and the future in-laws (just the Mothers) are going to be meeting each other for the first time! Did I say wish me luck?;) Happy to say no alcohol was needed! :D I will however keep that advice in mind, to use 5-10 years down the line ;) Posted photos over in the Thanksgiving thread! |
