Cranberry Sauce Recipe, No. 2

Use one half as much sugar, by measure, as cranberries and one half as much water as sugar. Cover and cook ten minutes - long cooking makes the sauce bitter - then skim and cool.

Cranberry Jelly Recipe

Cook one quart of cranberries in a cup of water over a hot fire about five minutes, or until the berries burst. With a wooden pestle press the pulp through a coarse sieve, add a pint of sugar, and stir until the sugar is dissolved, then pour into cups to cool. The sauce will not jelly if boiled after the sugar is added.
