: : I have a recipe for cranberry bread and it calls for fresh cranberries.I calls for chopped fresh cranberries. Should I use fresh or cooked? Can somebody advice me.
: : Thank you for your help
: Without question use fresh. They will be tenderized enough in the baking process and the sharp tart flavor will shine through. If you have extra cranberries after the recipe is made try putting them in a food processor with honey, citrus zest & juice and a splash of cognac for an uncooked cranberry condiment with much bolder flavor than cooked cranberry sauce
Gloria:
Use fresh cranberries. Make sure you chop them up coarsly. and mix them into the dough. Cranberry bread is excellent for the holidays.
