CRANBERRY TIPS
QUICK RECONSITITION METHOD
ADD dried fruit to a pot and cover them about ¼ inch of water. Bring to a rolling boil, remove from heat, cover with lid, let them sit 5 minutes, lightly drain (reserving liquid) and set aside to cool to room temp.
QUICKER RECONSITITION METHOD
PLACE dried fruit in a microwave-safe measuring cup, covering about ¼ inch with water. Heat for up to 3 minutes, stopping to stir in 30 second increments until the 2 minutes expire. Lightly drain (reserving liquid) and set aside and cool to room temp or refrigerate to speed cooling (15 mins)
