Cranberry Sauce

[YYY]

Hi Everybody

 

I did a search on this, but I haven't found an answer.

 

Can I preserve store bought cranberry sauce? If so, how? One can is too much for me to eat.

 

Thanks in advance

Last year I found a small can, about half the regular size. Don't know if they are available this year. I doubt you can re-can, but maybe try freezing.

I too recommend freezing for an opened can leftovers, if it cannot be consumed in a reasonable amount of time.

 

Canning would requiring boiling the product before it went into the jar, plus the canning process itself, and I'm not sure what that would do to the texture and taste. Commercial products also contain additional ingredients which may also not reprocess very well. A can in my pantry has at minimum High Fructose Corn Syrup and regular corn syrup in it.

It needs to be frozen, not canned.
