Ingredients for about 52oz (aka 6.5 cups aka 13 quarter pints aka 6.5 half pints)

Ingredients

  • 8 cups cranberries
  • ¾ cup apple cider vinegar
  • 3 cups sugar
  • 9 eggs beaten
  • 20 tablespoons butter 283g

Instructions

  • Get cranberries and apple cider vinegar to a boil in a large pot.
  • Mash cranberries thoroughly, then run them through a food mill into another pot.
  • Stir sugar into the cranberries but don't turn the heat back on. Stir until sugar is dissolved.
  • Slowly pour in the beaten eggs while whisking constantly so they don't scramble.
  • Put the butter in a separate pot. Pour in the cranberry mixture over the butter.
  • Stir until butter is completely melted and incorporated.
  • Cook on low to medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the curd is smooth and spoonable. Don't overcook it to the consistency of pudding. It'll thicken up as it cools.
  • Ladle into half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace.
  • Process in a waterbath for 15 minutes.
