Tony Perkin's Cranberry Sauce
From Tony Perkin
November 17, 2004

Another great Thanksgiving Day recipe straight from the "Good Morning America" family.

Ingredients

1 navel orange
1 lemon
24 ounces of fresh cranberries (two 12-ounce bags)
1 1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
4 tbsp. Grand Marnier (optional)

Directions

Zest the orange and the lemon. Juice the orange and the lemon you will have 1/2 cup of juice from the orange and 1/4 cup of juice from the lemon. Place these ingredients in a 4-quart saucepan.

Pick through and wash the cranberries in a colander and then add them to the pan. Add the sugar and water to the pan and stir. Over medium high heat bring quickly to a boil, lower heat to a simmer. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally.

Cranberries will pop and sauce will be quite thick. Remove sauce to a bowl and let cool to room temperature. If you want to add the Grand Marnier now would be the time. Add just one tablespoon per cup of sauce. Cover and place in the refrigerator. This sauce will keep at least three days covered in the refrigerator. This sauce is better when made at least one day ahead.

Makes 4 cups.
