Notes
This recipe will make about one cup of craisin cranberry sauce.
Instead of reconstituting the dried cranberries for this cranberry sauce in boiling water, you can also put the cranberries in a microwavable bowl, cover them with water, and microwave for a minute on high.
If your dried cranberries have as many seeds as mine do, your cranberry sauce will taste gritty if you don't remove them.
