Canned whole-berry cranberry sauce (Ocean Spray, to be specific) is recommended for the best flavor.

But the add-ins are where Gartens from-a-can cranberry sauce truly stands out.

She first tosses the canned cranberry sauce into a saucepan over medium-low heat.

Then, she removes the saucepan from the heat and adds large-diced walnuts and raisins to the mix.

This dish is best served chilled or at room temp.
