    Are you talking about that canned jelly crap?

    No it's in a glass jar and it's sauce including whole craberries not jeely.  This post was edited by Malizz at December 26, 2018 5:21 PM MST

    The only way to make it. I use orange juice instead of water and reduce the sugar by one half.

    Good thinking. It will be much better than the shop stuff and you need only make the right quantity.

    Throw it out.

    Only use fresh.  Your body will thank you.


    Raw Cranberry Sauce

    Fresh raw cranberries with dates, orange and lemon.

    From the recipe archive: Originally posted in 2008. This homemade cranberry sauce is a perfect side for your healthy Paleo Thanksgiving dinner.

    This sweet yet tart raw cranberry sauce is one of my favorite Thanksgiving dishes, in fact, it’s one of my favorite naturally gluten free dishes of all time!

    Tart, tangy and full of healing properties, just last week I ate an entire test batch.  I adore cranberries and stock up during this time of year while they are fresh, making fun cranberry dishes several times per week.

    When they go out of season, I keep bags of frozen cranberries in the freezer as the boys enjoy my homemade cranberry sauce.

    Raw Cranberry Sauce
    Serves:
    Ingredients
    • 1 orange, peeled, sliced, seeds removed
    • 1 lemon, peeled, sliced, seeds removed
    • 2 dates (remove pits) and chopped
    • 2 cups fresh cranberries
    Instructions
    1. Blend orange, lemon and dates in a food processor
    2. Add cranberries and process until coarsely chopped
    3. Serve

    Beware, this raw, vegan sauce is quite tart.  If that is not your thing, just add a few more dates.  Personally, I’ll take mine super sour!

    I would not recommend making this dish with frozen cranberries, though you can always give it a try to see how it turns out.  If you do, please leave a comment and share your results.

    I there's an expiration date on the bottom, you may be able to hold it until next year.

    We always used to have half a jar over each year, but once it's opened shelf life falls dramatically.
