For me cranberries signal the start of the holiday season! I love the beautiful deep bright red color, it's so festive! I serve them continuously throughout the season with leftovers and as a side dish. I buy plenty of bags of fresh cranberries while they are available at the market and freeze them. They are seasonal and you can't get fresh cranberries in the spring or summer. That' when having bags of frozen cranberries comes in handy. They can stay in your freezer for up to 9 months! I use fresh cranberries all year long.
