Cranberry Congealed Salad Food

CRANBERRY CONGEALED SALAD

Steps:

• Toast the pecans in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Once they darken a bit and smell nutty, remove to a cutting board and chop roughly once cool.
• Combine in the same saucepan: the light agave syrup, honey, cranberry juice, orange juice, candied ginger and five-spice powder. Bring this mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to maintain a simmer for 5 minutes.
• Add the cranberries to the saucepan, boost the heat to medium and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer. Cook for 15 minutes, stirring often, until the cranberries begin to burst open, and the mixture thickens. (I usually use the back of a wooden spoon to pop the berries against the side of the pan.)
• After 15 minutes (no more or the pectin will start to break down) remove from the heat and stir in the pecans. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes.
• Spoon the mixture into a 3 1/2-cup silicone mold of your choice, cover with plastic wrap and cool on the counter for 30 minutes. Place on a sheet pan before refrigerating for at least 6 hours. (Overnight would be better.)
• Turn out of mold and serve as a side or top with whipped cream and serve as dessert.
