This recipe is written to use the pulp after making cranberry juice.
Prepare the water bath canner by filling with water and bringing to a boil.
Wash the jars, lids, and bands with hot soapy water.
Pour the thick pulp into a stockpot.
Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
Stir in sugar and allow to simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce begins to gel.
Using a food funnel and large spoon, fill each jar with hot cranberry sauce, leaving at least 1/4 inch headspace.
Wipe the rim of the jars with a clean paper towel. Place lids and screw on bands fingertip tight.
Place the jars into the canner, cover, and process for 15 minutes. (adjust for altitude if necessary)
After processing, turn off the heat and carefully remove the jars with the jar lifter to a towel lined cutting board.
Allow the jars to rest for 12 hours before labeling, dating and storing. If any jars did not seal, use first. They can be frozen for up to 6 months or refrigerated for one week.
