About Cranberries, dried, sweetened
The cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon), the large American cranberry, is a small, firm, bright-red berry native to North America, famous for the sharp, tart, mouth-puckering flavor that needs sweetening to enjoy. Grown on low trailing vines in sandy bogs and often harvested by flooding the fields so the buoyant berries float to the top for scooping, cranberries are a Thanksgiving and holiday icon. They are low in calories, about 45 in a cup of raw fruit, and rich in vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants, and they are well known for the proanthocyanidin compounds studied for supporting urinary tract health.
Far too tart to eat raw, cranberries are cooked into the classic jellied and whole-berry holiday sauce, baked into breads, muffins, and scones, pressed into juice and cocktails, and dried into sweet-tart morsels for snacking, trail mix, and salads. Choose firm, glossy, deep-red berries that bounce when dropped, a sign of freshness, and pass over any that are soft or shriveled. Store fresh cranberries in the refrigerator, where they keep for a month or more, or freeze them right in the bag to enjoy long past their fall season.
