Notes

Modified recipe originally from the Oceanspray Cranberry bag. Grandma McP always added an orange to the original recipe. Remember she would occasionally put the berries and the orange thru the food grinder that attached to the table with the medium blade disk. An option would be to use a modern food processor to chop. My mother just put the whole berries into the sauce pan. The heat from boiling would make the berries “pop” and get soft. Using a spoon would then just press them against the side of the pan to take care of any large berries.
