Directions

Prep 5 minCook 30 min
  1. 1

    Combine cranberries, sugar, orange juice, and water in a 2‑quart heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.

  2. 2

    Reduce to a gentle simmer and cook, stirring occasionally and lightly mashing, until most berries have burst and the mixture is slightly thickened, about 18–22 minutes. It will continue to thicken as it cools.

  3. 3

    Press the hot jam through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to make it smooth, discarding skins and seeds. Let cool, stirring occasionally, then transfer to a clean jar and refrigerate until set.
