Give classic cranberry sauce a showstopping upgrade by adding rich, intensely fruity port wine. You can make the sauce ahead and reheat before serving.
Ingredients
- 1 orange
- 1 (12 oz) bag fresh cranberries
- 1 cup dark brown sugar
- ½ cup ruby port
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1/8 tsp salt
Steps
- Peel the orange with a vegetable peeler and slice the peel into thin strips. Juice the orange and add juice to a saucepan along with the cranberries and peel. Add the sugar, port, cinnamon, and salt. Simmer over low heat for 20 min., stirring occasionally, or until cranberries pop and sauce thickens.
- Transfer sauce to a bowl and let cool slightly before removing the cinnamon stick. Chill, covered, until ready to serve.
