CRANBERRY MOLDS

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring the cranberry juice to a boil. Transfer to a medium mixing bowl and pour in the gelatin. Stir until gelatin is completely dissolved. Stir in vodka. Chill 1 1/2 to 2 hours in the refrigerator until it begins to set. Stir in remaining ingredients. Divide into 12 (4-ounce) molds. Refrigerate at least 4 hours to set.
• Remove from molds by first running the tip of a sharp knife around the edge of the mold to loosen side. Then dip the bottom of mold in a bowl of warm water. Invert onto a plate. Serve garnished with fresh cranberries and a sprig of fresh mint

CRANBERRY MOLD

Steps:

• Empty a 12-ounce bag of fresh or frozen cranberries into a saucepan and transfer 1/2 cup to a small bowl. Add 1 cup sugar, 1 strip orange or lemon zest and 2 tablespoons water to the pan and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the cranberries are soft, about 10 minutes. Increase the heat to medium and cook until the cranberries burst, about 12 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the reserved cranberries. Add sugar, salt and pepper to taste. Let cool.
• Heat 1/2 cup cranberry juice over low heat, then stir in a 1/4-ounce packet gelatin. Puree cooled cranberry sauce with another 1/2 cup cranberry juice, then add the gelatin mixture. Pour into a mold or empty soup cans and refrigerate overnight. Serve with whipped cream.

NANNY'S CRANBERRY MOLD

Steps:

• Lightly oil a 1-quart nonreactive mold or a few smaller molds. Combine cranberries, sugar, zest, orange juice, lemon juice, and 1 cup water in a large saucepan over high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until cranberries burst and are completely softened, 12 to 15 minutes. Pass mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl, gently pressing on solids (pressing too hard will make the mixture cloudy). Skim any foam from surface; cover to keep warm.
• Sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup water in a bowl; let soften 1 minute. Stir gelatin mixture into warm cranberry mixture until gelatin is completely dissolved. Pour mixture into mold and refrigerate until set, at least 8 hours.
• Dip top of mold into a bowl of hot water 30 seconds, then run a paring knife around edge to loosen. Place a serving platter on bottom of mold; quickly invert platter and mold together. Tap to release; remove mold. (If gelatin doesnâ??t release easily, return to hot water for a few seconds.)

MOLDED CRANBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• In a heavy-bottom saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the cranberries and orange juice to a low boil. Cook, stirring frequently, until the cranberries stop popping, about 8-10 minutes. The mixture will foam up during this time, which is totally normal. DO NOT boil the cranberries longer than 15 minutes or the natural pectins will begin to break down. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
• Place a mesh strainer over a clean bowl. Add the boiled cranberries to the strainer and use the back of a spoon or a spatula to push out as much of the liquid as possible, collecting it into the bowl. Depending on the size of your strainer, you may have to work in batches. Don't rush this step, or you'll end up throwing away a lot of the liquid (I typically spend about about 5 minutes pressing the cranberries around the sides and bottom of the strainer). Once done, discard the remaining solids.
• Transfer the strained liquid back to the same saucepan and place it over medium-high heat. Add the sugar, lemon juice and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture has thickened slightly, about 3 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
• Wet the mold(s) that you'll use for the cranberry sauce by filling them with water and then dumping it out. I like to use drinking glasses or mason jars, but any kind of mold will do. Carefully pour the cranberry sauce into the mold(s).
• Transfer the molded cranberry sauce to your refrigerator. Let it cool for about 1-2 hours before covering the molds with a lid or plastic wrap. Continue to refrigerate the cranberry sauce until it's very firm, at least several hours but overnight is ideal. The cranberry sauce can be stored in the molds for up to 1 week before serving.
• When you are ready to serve, run a butter knife around the inside edge of the glass to release the cranberry sauce. Then slide it out onto a plate and cut it into slices. If you are having difficulties releasing the cranberry sauce, you can run the mold under hot water for 10-15 seconds.

HOME "CANNED" CRANBERRY SAUCE MADE IN A TIN CAN MOLD

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan. Place the pot over high heat and bring the contents of the pot to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the cranberries burst, stirring regularly. If it begins to look too thick or stick to the bottom of the pot, add a splash of water.
• Fit a food mill with its finest screen and set it over a bowl. When cranberries are finished cooking, pour them into the bowl of the food mill and work them through. You could also use a fine mesh sieve and a rubber scraper if you don't have a food mill. Mill the cranberries until all that remains in the bowl of the food mill is seeds and skins.
• Set a wide mouth funnel into your well-washed can molds and pour in the warm cranberry sauce, leaving a bit of space at the top.
• Cover the filled cans with plastic wrap and place them the fridge to set. If you can, give them at least 12 hours of chilling for optimum molding.
• When you're ready to serve, carefully slide the butter knife down along the side of the cranberry jelly and run it in a complete circle to loosen. Take care when you to this so you don't end up slicing all the can ridges off the jelly. Once the sauce has been loosened, invert the can into your dish and give it a little wiggle.
• Serve immediately.

JELLIED CRANBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring cranberries, sugar, and 3 cups water to a boil in a 4- to 5-quart heavy saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved, then reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, until all berries have burst, 10 to 15 minutes. Pour into a large fine-mesh sieve set over a 2-quart glass measure or a bowl and let stand until all juices have drained through, about 30 minutes. If necessary, press on solids until there is enough juice to measure 3 cups, then discard solids.

Bring 1 cup drained cranberry liquid to a simmer in a small saucepan, then add gelatin mixture and stir until just dissolved. Add gelatin mixture to remaining cranberry liquid and stir well.
