FRESH CRANBERRY SAUCE

Cranberry sauce is always one of many holiday highlights. You can make it fresh at home instead of using that stuff in the can that's loaded  with high frutose corn syrup. It's easy and only takes 15 minutes from start to finish.


FRESH CRANBERRY SAUCE

(1) 12 oz. bag of Fresh Cranberries
1/2 to 1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup water

Bring the sugar and the water to a boil in a medium heavy saucepan. Add the fresh cranberries, then return to a boil reducing heat to a gentle boil. Boil for 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Pour into a heat/cold proof bowl and cover. Refrigerate until serving time.

BALL VINTAGE BLUE CANNING JARS

 

 

Ball Vintage Blue  canning jars seem to be all the rage these days. And, it's now wonder since they have so many other uses other for use in canning fruits and vegetables.

They make fantastic storage containers for a variety of items. Let's face it...they add so much charm to any space. I like to store my coffee, tea, honey, nuts, etc. in them for display under my vintage kitchen cabinets.

You can use the same idea to display your vintage canning jars. Just secure a vintage zinc or a metal canning jar lid with ring under your cabinet with a screw, fill your jar, then screw into the lid.

If you don't have any Ball Vintage Blue canning jars you can simply use a new canning jar.  You can learn more about where to purchase Ball Vintage Blue  canning jars at: http://www.etsy.com/shop/uniquecozytreasures
