Using leftover cranberry sauce? Does anyone have any recipes?

[korrick]

Hi, I made way too much cranberry sauce for Christmas - it seemed that only I was eating it!!!! Does anyone know how long it lasts in the fridge - there's nothing growing on it yet!
Anyone know how to use it up. I would appreciate any recipes. Thanks

Korrick I don't know how much you have, probably heaps but I just use it on chicken or turkey sandwiches after Christmas - that's one sandwich my DH does enjoy.  Just how long homemade sauce would last I don't know, perhaps you can freeze it in very small tubs before it does go off.  You can use it instead of Lingonberry jam for Swedish Meat balls, it can be served with roast chicken or chicken fillets, add it to the centre of some muffins before baking.

Thanks JD for the quick response - I know I can count on you! I will try on sandwiches, swedish meatballs and maybe freeze. Didn't think about freezing! silly.

I usually add it to berry jam ,  when we have had enough on sandwiches .

I think it would go well with deep fried Camembert.

You could put some cranberry sauce into raspberry jelly (as if you would just happen to be making that!)  - here are the ingredients for  the recipe that was in our newspaper yesterday:

1 1/4 tsp gelantine powder, 1 1/2 cups (375 ml) cranberry juice (original recipe calls for juice but try using your sauce), 1/4 cup (55g) castor sugar, 80g + raspberries, and to serve separately whisk together 1 cup pouring cream, 1/4 cup coconut cream .


You could also put a couple of tablespoons of it in with any casserole or curry that could do with a piquant boost.

Wicked suggestion.

I mix it into quick breads - pumpkin, carrot, zucchini, etc., (about 1/4 cup per loaf)  and I reduce the sugar by 1/3 for 1/4 cup of sauce and it may need to bake a bit longer. 

There are a few recipes on the 'net that incorporate cranberry sauce.  Such as this one.  just to give you an idea.
