For a deeper ginger flavor, gently bruise the ginger piece before adding it to the sauce. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking, depending on the tartness of the cranberries. A splash of orange juice or zest can add a bright, citrusy note to the sauce. This cranberry sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
