Stoopid Simple Cranberry Sauce

Not a jellied sauce but unflavored gelatin could always fix that. The wife made this today -- while suffering terrible twinges from the site of her root canal, yet. Every now and then it kicks up.

If I'd ever known it was this easy...! Don't get me wrong, I love the canned Ocean Spray product too, that keeps the pattern of the can on its outside when you unmold it from the can into a recumbent claret cylinder on its serving dish -- particularly for turkey sandwiches the day after, which this more liquid sauce won't do...

3 cups (340g/705ml) Frozen Cranberries -- the 12 oz package
1/2 cup (100g/115ml) Honey
1 cup (225ml) Water
Zest of one small Orange

Bring Water and Honey to boil, dissolving honey. Add Cranberries and Orange Zest, return to boil, boiling gently until cranberry skins pop or break. Remove from heat and refrigerate -- about 1 hour is enough to chill it well. Yields about 2 1/2 cups of sauce.
