    A tangy sauce traditionally served with turkey.

    Yield: Makes about 2 cups

    INGREDIENTS
    • 12 oz (336g) fresh or frozen cranberries
    • 1 shallot, finely chopped
    • ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
    • ½ cup hearty red wine or port
    • Grated zest of 1 orange
    • 1/3 cup fresh orange juice

    Directions

    1. Bring the cranberries, shallot, brown sugar, wine, and orange zest and juice and to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring often to dissolve the sugar.

    2. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring, for 10–12 minutes, or until all of the cranberries skins have burst. Let cool.

    3. Transfer to a bowl and serve chilled or at room temperature.
