    This is the best cranberry sauce we have created. A bit of orange, spice and red wine add complexity to the sweet tart cranberries. It's perfect for Thanksgiving. It is also a wonderful topping for sweet potatoes, and for Hanukkah, Sweet Potato Latkes.

    Ingredients

    • 2 Bags Cranberries
    • 1 cup fruity red wine
    • 2 cups white sugar
    • 1 cup brown sugar
    • 12 whole cloves
    • 12 whole allspice
    • 4 cinnamon sticks
    • ½ orange, sliced
    • pinch of salt
    • 1/2 cup dried cranberries
    • 1-2 Tb lemon juice

    Directions

    1. Rinse berries and set aside. In a medium saucepan make a wine sugar syrup by combining all ingredients except for the fresh and dried berries and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Lower heat and simmer until reduced by 1/3 – about 20 minutes.
    2. Strain mixture and return to saucepan. Add both cranberries and cook until berries burst, about 10-15 minutes, stirring to prevent sticking. Remove from heat and add lemon juice. Cool. Taste and adjust flavor.
