Cranberry dressing is a classic when paired with turkey at Holiday time, and cranberry juice is an old standby for every bartender. But the versatility of the cranberry doesn’t stop there. Its reputation has spread considerably since gourmets around the world discovered its unique flavour profile.
Looking for inspiration? A simple handful of cranberries makes an excellent snack all on its own. Try adding some to breakfast cereal or make up some trail mix to liven up a lunch box. Dairy products like ice cream or yogurt achieve new heights of flavour. Try serving cranberry compote with grilled meats or braised meats like lamb or chicken or even shrimp: their delicate sweet and salty flavour will be greatly enhanced. Not to mention the classic line-up of pastries, candies, cocktails and much, much more...
Some tried and true favourites never go out of style: try replacing raisins with cranberries in your favourite cookie dough.
