The season for all cranberry everything is so short, but so sweet (and tart!). While cranberries might best be known for their cameo in the form of a gelatinous can shape on the Thanksgiving table, they’re delicious all through the winter season. Their unique flavor means they go well in sweet or savory dishes, adding flavor and tartness everywhere they go. Here’s 35 ways to enjoy cranberries while they’re available!
