Maple Ginger Cranberry Sauce Food

GINGER-MAPLE CRANBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine cranberries, orange zest, ginger, brown sugar, maple syrup, vinegar, salt, and sugar in a saucepan, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thick and jammy, 1½-2 hours.
• Remove from heat when the sauce is thick on a spoon and doesn't want to shake off. Stir in freshly grated nutmeg. Allow to cool at room temperature, then refrigerate. Sauce will keep airtight in the refrigerator or freezer for at least 2 weeks.

CRANBERRY MAPLE SAUCE

Steps:

• Rinse cranberries under cool running water, pick over and discard any bad berries. Place berries into a medium saucepan.
• Stir in the orange zest, Grand Marnier (or orange juice), cranberry juice, and pure maple syrup.
• Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high to high heat, keeping a close eye and stirring often.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook for about 10 minutes, until sauce thickens and most of the berries have popped.
• Pour into a glass dish and let cool. For best results let sit in fridge overnight.

CRANBERRY-ORANGE-MAPLE SAUCE

Steps:

• Pour sauce into hot, sterilized jars. Sauce will keep in refrigerator two to three weeks. It may be frozen for longer storage.
