Preparation Put the water and the sugar into a saucepan and bring them to a boil. If you are using fresh cranberries, clean them and wash them well, then add them to the saucepan.

Let them boil slowly for about 10 minutes while stirring the fruit delicately so that it does not stick. Let the sauce cool then keep it in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve at table.
 
The Chef's tips If you don’t have much time available, frozen cranberries may be used for this purpose. There are also other ingredients you may like to add to your sauce, such as crushed pecan nuts to enhance its taste.
 
Curiosity Cranberries have always been considered to be part of Thanksgiving fare from time immemorial. The vines that this fruit comes from, grow wild in America and go on forever if not tampered with.
