This cranberry consommé is a simple, clear cranberry sauce made with just cranberries, lemon juice, and sugar, perfect for desserts, mocktails, or holiday treats.

Equipment

  • Heat-safe bowls
  • Pot with lid
  • Spatula
  • Foil
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Digital Scale

Ingredients

  • 200 g cranberries fresh or frozen
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 25 g powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Place 1 inch of water into a large pot and bring to a boil.
  • In a glass or metal bowl, place your cranberries, lemon juice, and sugar, and stir to combine. Place your bowl on the pot, above the boiling water, and place a lid on top of the bowl that fits as snugly as possible.
  • After about 3-5 minutes, remove the lid briefly, tightly cover and wrap your bowl with foil, and place the lid back on. Turn the stove down to low and cook for one hour.
  • If desired, strain cranberries out of the juice.
  • Store airtight in the fridge until ready to use

Notes

*If you prefer cherries instead of cranberries, go for it! They have a similar stability and sharpness that works perfectly in this consommé
*I received this recipe from Chef Ash during my pastry course in Scotland
