Step by Step
For the Cranberry Puree
- Put all ingredients into a medium sized saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes until thick.
- Transfer to a medium bowl, cover and cool. Store in refrigerator until ready to use.
- When ready to use, pour into a food processor or blender and pulse until thin and smooth.
For the Citrus Peels
- Remove peels from the lemon and orange and slice into thin strips. Bring water and sugar to a boil and add peels. Simmer for 15 minutes maintaining a constant boil.
- Drain water and place peels on a drying rack with a paper towel underneath. Sprinkle superfine sugar over peels and let dry. Repeat adding sugar every few hours as they dry to give them more sparkles. This may take 24 hours depending on the humidity in your house.
