For a deeper flavor, consider adding a pinch of cinnamon or a splash of orange juice during the simmering process. The washing of cranberries helps to reduce bitterness, so do not skip this step. This sauce can be made several days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can use an immersion blender to lightly puree the cranberries after cooking.
