Ingredients
- 3 cups fresh cranberries coarsely chopped
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 1/4 cup water
- Pinch fine sea salt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Combine the chopped cranberries, sugar, water and sea salt in a heavy saucepan, brining to a low boil.
- Stir until the sugar is dissolved. Lower the heat to medium and allow to simmer.
- Simmer for approximately 10 minutes, stirring sporadically with a wooden spoon. Mixture will be thick and sticky.
- Place a fine sieve or colander over a bowl. Strain the mixture through, pressing down lightly on solids to get the excess syrup out.
- Whisk the lemon juice into the syrup and place in the refrigerator to cool slightly. The syrup will be ready for use in 10-15 minutes. You can freeze the syrup or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
