For the past several years I've been making cranberry sauce. It is so easy and so much tastier than what you buy in the can. In the past years I have added minced clementine rinds to the sauce. This year I thought I would go for even bigger orange flavor in the sauce and a few more spices besides the cinnamon I had been adding. Here's this year's recipe--
Cranberry Orange Sauce
1 Navel Orange
12-16 oz. cranberries, rinsed and drained
1 cup sugar
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp. ground allspice
1/8 tsp. ground cloves
dash ground nutmeg or fresh ground nutmeg
pinch of salt
Into a sauce pot, zest 1 navel orange. Juice the orange and reserve the juice in a measuring cup. Add enough water in the measuring cup to make 1 cup of liquid. Add the liquid to the pot along with remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil. Stir constantly to avoid burning. Cook until the berries are all bursting and the mixture is a jam-like consistency. Pour into a serving bowl to cool. Once cooled, refridgerate until Turkey Day. Enjoy!
