Make a "Tin Can" Molded Cranberry Jelly, Just Like Your Childhood

Canned cranberry sauce is a Thanksgiving staple across the country, and if you always get nostalgic for the wiggly, jiggly, molded jelly from your childhood, this modern-day recipe is for you!

Learn to make a better version of the famous (or infamous) cranberry jelly “log.”

Ingredients

Cranberries Sugar Orange Juice Pectin

Step 1

In a medium pot over medium-high heat, combine all of the ingredients and bring to a full rolling boil, stirring frequently to prevent scorching.

Step 2

Once the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened into a jam-like consistency, about 15 minutes, remove the pot from heat.

Step 3

Press the cranberries through a food mill (fitted with its finest screen) or a fine mesh sieve (with a spoon) to strain the sauce of any seeds and pulp.

Pour the cranberry sauce into a clean, empty, 15-ounce can. Let the sauce cool to room temperature, then refrigerate overnight until the jelly is set.

Step 4

When you’re ready to serve, gently run a butter knife around the sides of the jelly to loosen it from the mold.
