Cooking In the Burn Barrel and Holiday Cranberry Sauce Recipe!
We wrapped some veges in foil and put them in the
coals after we burned some wood in the burn barrel today.
It all got burned up on the edges but the middle was good. Anybody else ever try this?
I made some cranberry sauce. I modified a recipe I found in the Joy of Cooking, a great book. I refer to it often.
Here is what I did:
Festive Cranberry Sauce
12 oz cranberries, separated 10 oz and 2 0z
1 orange, deseeded
2 cups water in large pan
1 cup organic evaporated cane sugar
Bring water and sugar to a boil in a large pot while you
Puree in food processor 10 oz of fresh cranberries and one whole orange (including the peel) cut in quarters. Remove any seeds and thick white pith from the orange if need be.
Add puree and whole berries to the boiling sugar mixture and reduce heat, keep it bubbly.
Stir constantly until it reduces by 1/3
Pour into a large jar, cover and cool. Refrigerate for two days and then serve.
We are going to SF for Thanksgiving and I will take this with me to add to the feast.

I used to do that when I would go camping... potatoes, onions, carrots and peppers in foil in the fire. Meat, too, if I didn't have a good cut. Potatoes are great that way!
ReplyDeleteYeah, we just left them in too long. Next time it will be better. Thicker chunks of veges and a shorter cooking time.
