Need Cranberry recommendation

yes. :)

I know, that's not very helpful, but you can use them however you want.

Dried cranberries will be rather like raisins, although with an entirely different flavor.

Fresh cranberries will be firm little explosions of cranberry flavor (rather like cranberry bread).

Frozen cranberries will cook down a little smaller than fresh berries, and (ime) disperse through the batter a little bit more than fresh berries.

I've neve baked with re-hydrated dried cranberries, so I can't help you there.

Thanks, I think I like the dried idea, acting like raisins best. I'll give it shot.

Do you have access to a product called Crazins made by Ocean Spray? They are dried cranberries and we use them all the time...from nut bread, to pancakes to salads. They are wonderful.

The Fine Art of Cooking involves personal choice. Many preferences, ingredients, and procedures may not be consistent with what you know to be true. As with any recipe, you may find your personal intervention will be necessary. Bon Appetit!

Add dried cranberries that have been re-hydrated in some kind of liquid, warm water or apple juice would be good. Make sure you drain them before you add them in.

You should be able to find "Craisins" which are dried, sweetened cranberries sold in a bag or pouch by Ocean Spray, the cranberry growing co-operative. Craisins are an excellent product for use in quick breads and muffins. They have a reasonably long shelf life, comparable to raisins, so you can buy more than you need and use them in future recipes.

Here is a recipe and picture of the product from Ocean Spray:

Hey, thanks for that as well. Right from the bag to the pan...gotta love that. Recipe is close to mine as well, except I use a lot more butter :)

Well, if you lose the bananas...:>)

Also in cookies or eat 'em like candy! I put them in curried pea soup.

Also a great addition to salads, especially chicken or turkey salad.
