Cranberry Sauce with Candied Ginger

5 from 2 votes

Want to try the best cranberry sauce ever? I made this cranberry sauce recipe with candied ginger to give it a bit of a bite. Try this kicked up version!

The holidays are coming around and it is cranberry season so it is time to get your cooking mentality geared towards fall. As a creative chef, I'm always looking to make things either a little different or better. Hopefully in most cases I achieve both.

This recipe, I added ginger, if you don't like ginger but want a bite, try adding one whole jalapeño with just slit down one side of the pepper. This will release the flavor and spice but not completely overwhelm it.

This is a easy recipe that will only take about 10-15 minutes to make, so major commitment. If you are looking for another alternative cranberry recipe, try my thanksgiving cranberry sorbet recipe

Here is the best cranberry sauce recipe with candied ginger, I hope you enjoy it!

How to make cranberry sauce

In a sauce pot add diced candied ginger, orange juice, sugar, cranberries, and salt. Bring to a simmer and allow to cook for about 12-14 minutes. Until the cranberries start to break down and thicken the sauce. Turn off the heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Pour into a container until ready to use. Enjoy!
