A puree of cranberry as a sauce to compliment your Thanksgiving meal.

This Thanksgiving, why not give a cranberry coulis a try? This puree is a delicious sauce served with turkey and all of the fixings. The tangy cranberry combined with orange and herbs makes the perfect complement to the meal. It’s a combination of sweet, earthy and sharp flavors all in one. The gorgeous color of this coulis will add to the beauty of the plate. It is simple to make and tastes delicious.

Cranberry coulis:

2 C. frozen cranberries

1/3 C. water

1 Tbsp. dried rosemary

1 C. sugar

¼ C. orange juice

4 sprigs of mint

Place cranberries, water, and rosemary into a sauce pan. Bring to boil. Decrease heat, cover and allow it to simmer until berries begin to pot (about five minutes). Remove from heat. Stir in sugar and orange juice. Allow this to cool. Press it through a sieve and discard the skins. Refrigerate. When you are ready to serve, place sprigs of mint on top.
