Instructions

  1. Zest and juice the orange. To the orange juice, add enough additional juice to make one full cup if necessary.
  2. Rinse the cranberries in a colander.
  3. Place cranberries, orange zest and juice, sugar, cinnamon stick, and cloves in a heavy bottomed saucepan.
  4. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium high heat.
  5. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 10-15 minutes until the cranberries have softened and the mixture thickens.
  6. 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.
