Title: How to use up cranberries
Post by: grawrc on October 02, 2009, 19:11:35
Since it was raining today I decided to sort fridge/ freezer and larder. I found a quantity of cranberries at the bottom of the fruit drawer in my freezer that need to be used up* and just wondered if anyone has any favourite recipes for cranberries.

* dessert tonight is raspberry, blackcurrant and gooseberry trifle!! (other things needing finished). From last summer believe it or not. :-[ :-[ :-[

Wow Jeannine! thanks. I should have known you were the one to ask!!

I tend not to have a sweet tooth, so anything savoury would be great. I currently use cranberries to make a spicy cranberry and orange sauce to go with venison, but I don't eat venison that often, so your sauce with chicken or roast pork would be great.

And, on second thoughts, I suspect my son, who lives wit me and has a VERY sweet tooth would appreciate muffins, biscuits or cranberry orange loaf.

So as much or as little of those as you wish when and if you have a moment .

Thanks a million.
