Welcome back to my kitchen Gigi’s Kitchen where you get to learn all kinds of tips and learning new recipes and cooking and dining and it’s the holiday season just around the corner so the next two or three videos I thought I’m going to throw some really quick little

Videos up there just to help you out a bit maybe give you a few little ideas to up your game a bit um and we’re just going to keep it really simple because one of the most important things about holidays and Thanksgiving especially is that we stay in

Tradition um I’ll give you an example so traditionally we eat turkey and jassine and gravy mashed potatoes all of the sides that you could ever think of and every family has their own Traditions so they don’t want change they don’t want you experimenting they want what they want what they believe is the

Traditional meal for your family one of our big Traditions too is cranberry sauce and we have to have three different kinds of cranberry sauce and so a couple years back I decided okay we’re going to do it I don’t have time for all this cranberry sauce making it

From scratch which I love and you can do it so I have a hack for you to get through the cranberry sauce because if you’re like us you got to have a can of the jelly now the jelly one I didn’t have one to show you but you know what

I’m talking about since it’s comes in a can and it’s jelly and so what you do is you do not scoop it out do not scoop it out into your plate you have to open one end then you open the other end and then you push it out so the whole thing comes

Out in a big log on your plate and then you slice it and lay it out nice and neat and so that’s the canned jelly cranberry sauce has to be on the table don’t miss it it will be there the next one is for our family is a cranberry relish that a lot

Of times I make from scratch if I have time and so a couple years back I completely forgot the Cranberries I thought oh my gosh what am I going to do there’s no cranberries in the store they’re sold out and so I’m running around so I came up with this quick

Little hack and I’m going to share it with you because it’ll make your life a little bit easier during the holidays this is canned cranberries sauce and it’s the whole cranberries so what we do is we take a can of the whole cranberry sauce and we

Put it in the pan and this one you can scoop because it doesn’t really matter but if I pull it all out of there you can see that it has whole cranberries in it okay now you can add some fresh cranberries to this if you want but the

This is a hack it’s to get you going and get you started so there is your cranberries cranberry sauce this is already got the sugar in it all the flavorings the traditional savoriness of cranberries with all that and to this I’m going to add two large te tablespoons two large tablespoons of

Orange marmalade to it and you can add more if you want and and then I’m going to have a dash nutmeg on the top I mean just a dash and this is just to brighten up some of those canned flavors now like I normally say I don’t cook with canned

Goods but there are a few canned goods I do cook with tomatoes candy cranberries is one but if you look on it it just has cranberries and corn syrup and that’s pretty much it and then some seasoning and then we’re going to add a dash of

Cinnamon that’s it it okay so then we put this on the stove and we melt it down we Stir It Up really good then you’re going to put it into a bowl cover it with Saran put it in the refrigerator this can even freeze so you can even

Freeze it for Christmas or later on or any time of the year that you want it so I’m going to go stir this up and get it hot on the stove and I’ll be right back okay I’m back so I have heated my cranberry and my marmalade together with

My little season seasonings on the stove it took about 5 minutes to get it really good and hot stirring it while it was going to keep it from sticking until all the sugars have dissolved and you’re not seeing any granules in there and remember this was

Already jelly before so we don’t have to cook it for hours to reduce it down to make the jelly so it’s ready to go so right now I’m just going to put this in this little Bowl here so you can see it now remember so there’s one it’s ready to go

You can do whatever you want to this you can add anything you want but for our third cranberry sauce we always have to have is basically the same thing but we’re going to add a jalapeno for spice and I have one chopped jalapeno No Seeds

No uh ribs and I’m just going to stir all of that in now I have to make sure everybody knows that this is a jalapeno one and this is the plain one because those nons spice eaters or non heat eaters I guess you should say might bite

Into that but it’s really good to give it a notch up so then we have this one is now ready to go and see that was quick and easy and three different types of cranberries just for your Thanksgiving dinner cranberry sauce cranberry relish with jalapenos and don’t forget the

Canned jelly that’s so easy anyway this is a one hack for you help you get through the holidays see you next week bye
