Cranberry Sauce

By ccavins

Using marmalade to flavor the cranberries
is a quick way to add a sweet, complex
dimension to a traditionally boring side dish.

Ingredients

• 1 12-ounce bag fresh whole cranberries
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 cinnamon sticks
• 1 cup orange marmalade
• 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar

Preparation

Step 1

Place the cranberries, water, and cinnamon
sticks in a medium saucepan. Heat to boiling.
Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 5
minutes, stirring, until the cranberries pop.
Remove from heat, stir in the marmalade,
and cool. Add sugar if the sauce is too tart .
(This can be made up to 4 days ahead.) Cover
and refrigerate. Serve at room temperature.
