Cranberry Sauce with Pears and Fresh Ginger
Cranberry Sauce with Pears and Fresh Ginger from Ellen's 2024 Thanksgiving table, thanks to America's Test Kitchen Ingredients: 3/4 cup water 1 cup granulated sugar 1 tbs grated fresh ginger 1/4 tsp cinnamon 1/4 tsp salt 12 oz cranberries 2 medium pears, firm, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2 inch chunks Note: cooking time here is for fresh berries. If using frozen berries, add 2 minutes to cooking time. Bring: water, sugar, ginger, cinnamon, and salt to boil in non-corrosive pot over high heat to dissolve sugar. Stir: in cranberries and pears and return to boil. Reduce to medium and simmer until saucy, slightly thickened, and about 2/3 of berries have ruptured, about 5 minutes. Transfer to non-reactive bowl, cool to room temperature and serve, or chill.
