In our house, cranberry sauce is a must for a Thanksgiving turkey, and this recipe is very flavorful. The sweet apples provide a nice balance to the tart cranberries, and you can sense the overtones of the ginger but it doesn’t overwhelm. And making this couldn’t be easier, you just put all the ingredients in the pot and simmer for 30 minutes then let it get cold. I make this a day or two before and let it chill in the refrigerator.
