I know some people only like the canned gel-like cranberry sauce. I personally can’t get on that band wagon. A sauce shouldn’t be gel, if you ask me. Fresh cranberry sauce is so easy and I love having something tart and fresh on the table with the feast. I usually make my cranberry sauce with blackberries in it, but I thought this batch with blueberries was amazing.
