The name cranberry derives from craneberry, a moniker coined by early European settlers in America who felt the expanding flower, stem, calyx, and petals resembled the neck, head, and bill of a crane. In North America, Native Americans were the first to use cranberries as food and it is likely that they introduced cranberries to the early settlers in Massachusetts who incorporated the berries into traditional Thanksgiving feast.
This pizza recipe is patriotic as well as simple and yet very exotic. The mixture of brie, chicken and cranberries transforms its taste into a voyage of delightful discovery.
