Instructions
- Zest and juice the orange. To the orange juice, add enough additional juice to make one full cup if necessary.
- Rinse the cranberries in a colander.
- Place cranberries, orange zest and juice, sugar, cinnamon stick, and cloves in a heavy bottomed saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium high heat.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes until the cranberries have softened and the mixture thickens.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool before serving.
Notes
- Be sure to remove the zest from the orange before juicing it. It's really difficult to do it the other way round. I like to use a microplane grater for removing the zest and a reamer for juicing the orange halves.
- As the cranberries heat up, they'll start to pop. This is normal and expected!
- Make Ahead. This recipe is even better if made ahead and the flavors allowed to marry. Make it up to a week in advance and store in the fridge. Let it come to room temperature before serving.
- Storage. Store leftover sauce in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 10 days.
- Freezing. This recipe freezes very well. Store it in an airtight freezer container and freeze for up to three months.
