Thanksgiving is coming up, and I need a recipe for cranberry sauce. Can you help?

Sure! I’ll give you some basic directions and you can modify them as you want. Here’s how you can make cranberry sauce:

1. You will need cranberries, sugar, and water.

2. Measure out some cranberries, and put them in a pot.

3. Add water.

4. Bring the water to a boil.

5. Add sugar.

6. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries become soft, or are “popped”.

7. If you want a chunkier consistency, let the cranberries cool and drain off the water.

8. Add more water and let boil.

9. When you want to use the sauce, take some of it off the heat, let cool, and refrigerate.  When it’s cool, it will be thick.

Alright. I think you’ll need about 3 cups of cranberries.  And I’m thinking you’ll need about 1 cup of sugar.

Let’s see... There are one or two or more cups of cranberries and two cups of water. You can add some sugar until the cranberries are “popped” (that means they burst, or open), or let them get a chunkier consistency.  You can refrigerate the sauce as soon as you want, or you can keep boiling and add sugar until you’ve got a thick texture.
