   2       lb           Apples -- use 1 lb of Granny
                        -Smith and 1lb McIntosh
   2       c            Cranberries

     1/2   ts           Ground clove -- or to taste

  Core and coarsely chop the apples, but do not peel
  them. Put them into a large sacuepan with the
  cranberries, cider and ginger root. Cover and bring
  the liquid to a boil, then stew over low heat,
  stirring occasionally, until the cranberries have
  burst and the apples are tender. The apples should be
  tender in about 15 to 20 minutes, depending on variety
  and ripeness. Press the fruit pulp thorugh a coarse
  sieve with the back of a spoon, straining out the
  skins and seeds and ginger slices. Stir in the sugar
  and the clove, holding back at first to avoid over
  seasoning.
  
  Serve the sauce warm or at room temperature with
  poultry, pork and/or game.
