Cranberries are bright red berries known for their tart and slightly sweet flavour. Originally from North America, they are now used widely around the world in both sweet and savoury recipes.
Cranberries are incredibly versatile: they fit perfectly in baked goods, salads, sauces, stuffings, cereals, granolas and savoury dishes. Their vivid colour and distinct taste make them an excellent ingredient for creative cooking.
A fun fact: early North American settlers used cranberry juice as a natural dye for fabrics and foods due to its intense pigmentation.
Quick cranberry sauce:
Simmer 200 g cranberries with 150 ml water, 2 tablespoons sugar and a touch of orange zest for 10–12 minutes until thickened. Perfect with poultry, cheese or roasted vegetables.
