Fresh cranberry sauce is the BEST!! The taste is so different than the canned which haven’t ever bought. We like to put a couple spoonfuls of cranberry sauce on top of our pumpkin pie with a dollop of homemade whipped cream. SO good!

People who have only eaten that tasteless glop in cans have NO idea what cranberry sauce is supposed to taste like. "Ocean Spray" should be ashamed to put that glop out.
And making the REAL, fresh stuff is so easy; buy fresh bag of cranberries, wash the berries, add prescribed amount of sugar (per recipe on the cranberry bag-, cook a few minutes, cool a bit and put in frig. It comes out thickened. That's ALL.
Skip the orange or other cr** that people recommend you add. Anything added ruins the natural delicious taste of the fresh cranberries.
Some people strain it, but I like the whole berries in it. It not only tastes delicious, but a bowl of whole berry sauce looks beautiful on your holiday table.
