Why are cranberries so sour

The taste of fresh cranberries is originally sour. We usually eat dried cranberries because they are processed. We can also cut fresh cranberries and marinate them with sugar for a period of time, and then put them into desiccant or oven to dry them at low temperature.

The taste of fresh cranberries is originally sour and light sweet. The reason why many people misunderstand the sweetness of cranberries may be that we often eat processed dried cranberries.

If we can't accept the sour taste of cranberries, we can clean these fresh cranberries, cut them but don't cut them completely, then add an appropriate amount of sugar, stir them evenly, cover them with plastic wrap and store them in the refrigerator for a day or two.

After the sugar wrapped on the surface of the cranberries has melted, we can take them out and put them in a desiccant or oven and dry them at low temperature. Dried cranberries can not only be eaten directly, but also used to make cakes and biscuits.
