Steps:
- In a small saucepan, bring 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Add cranberries; return to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 2 minutes. Let cool completely. Use a slotted spoon to lift cranberries out of syrup (reserve syrup for another use, such as for cocktails); transfer to a wire rack and let dry until just tacky to the touch, 30 minutes.
- Toss with remaining 1/4 cup sugar to coat. Let dry completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days. (If sugar has melted at all, toss with more before using.)
Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor and texture.
- Choose cranberries that are plump and firm, with no signs of bruising or mold.
- Rinse the cranberries thoroughly before using.
- To make the sugared cranberries, use a sugar-to-water ratio of 1:1. This will ensure that the cranberries are evenly coated in sugar and have a nice, shiny glaze.
- If you want to add some extra flavor to the sugared cranberries, try adding a pinch of ground cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger.
- To make the rosemary-infused cranberries, use fresh rosemary sprigs. You can also use dried rosemary, but the flavor will be less pronounced.
- To make the rosemary-infused sugar, simply combine the sugar and rosemary in a food processor or blender and pulse until the rosemary is finely chopped.
- Both the sugared cranberries and the rosemary-infused cranberries can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
Sugared cranberries and rosemary-infused cranberries are two easy and delicious ways to enjoy this festive fruit. They can be used to decorate cakes, pies, and other desserts, or simply enjoyed as a snack. With their bright red color and tart flavor, they are sure to add a touch of holiday cheer to any occasion.
