GINGER-MAPLE CRANBERRY SAUCE



Ginger-Maple Cranberry Sauce image

It's just not Thanksgiving without cranberry sauce. More of a jam than a sauce, this one is cooked low and slow, with aromatic kicks from ginger, orange zest, and maple syrup. Clearly, it's destined for turkey, but we'd also pair it with cheese, or even drizzle it over ice cream.

Time 2h20m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 pounds cranberries
2 tablespoons orange zest
2 tablespoons ginger, peeled and chopped

1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
1/2 cup sugar
1 whole nutmeg

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.

STICKY CRANBERRY GINGERBREAD



Sticky Cranberry Gingerbread image

Sticky, spicy and full of cranberries, this gingerbread is perfect for the holidays. The recipe has been designed to make ahead, and will taste as good 2 days after baking as it does on the same day. (It will keep for 4 to 5 days.) To store it, wrap it well, stick it in the fridge and then bring to room temperature before serving. Whipped cream or crème fraîche, spiked with a little bourbon if you like, is nice on the side.

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups/8 ounces/266 grams fresh or frozen cranberries
1 cup/200 grams granulated sugar
1 stick/4 ounces/113 grams unsalted butter
2/3 cup/133 grams dark brown sugar
1/2 cup/120 milliliters whole milk
1/2 cup/120 milliliters maple syrup
1/4 cup/60 milliliters molasses
1 1/2 cups/185 grams all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon/5 grams ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon/1 gram ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon/3 grams baking powder
1/2 teaspoon/3 grams kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon/1 gram baking soda
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon/14 grams grated fresh ginger (from 1-inch piece)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees and line a 9-inch square or round baking pan with parchment.
  • In a small, heavy-bottomed saucepan, stir together cranberries, granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon water. Stir the cranberries over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved and cranberries form a sauce that is syrupy and bubbling thickly, about 10 minutes. Aim to have about half the cranberries broken down, with the remainder more or less whole.
  • In a separate saucepan, stir together the butter, brown sugar, milk, maple syrup and molasses over medium heat. Bring it to just barely a simmer and then remove it from the heat. Do not let it come to a boil, or the mixture may curdle.
  • In a large bowl, sift together the flour, ginger, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, baking soda and black pepper. Beat in the butter-maple syrup mixture and then beat in the eggs. Stir in the ginger.
  • Scrape the batter into the pan. Drop fat dollops of cranberry sauce onto the surface of the cake batter. Drag a long, slender knife through the batter in a swirly design, as if you are marbling a cake. Transfer the cake to the oven and bake it until the top is firm and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire baking rack and let the cake cool completely before eating it.

GINGER CRANBERRY SAUCE



Ginger Cranberry Sauce image

Cranberries add sparkle to the Thanksgiving meal.

Provided by Sheila Lukins

Categories     Sauce     Ginger     Thanksgiving     Quick & Easy     Cranberry     Christmas Eve     Parade

Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

16 ounces fresh cranberries, picked over and rinsed
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon finely chopped ginger
Finely grated zest from 1 orange

Steps:

  • 1. Combine all of the ingredients in a heavy saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the berries pop open, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • 2. Skim foam off the surface with a metal spoon and discard. Cool to room temperature. Refrigerate, covered, for up to 3 months.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor and texture. Frozen cranberries can be used in a pinch, but they will not be as tart or flavorful.
  • If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger instead.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to make the sauce so that it doesn't scorch.
  • Stir the sauce frequently to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • Cook the sauce for at least 15 minutes, or until the cranberries have softened and burst.
  • Let the sauce cool slightly before serving so that it thickens.
  • Serve the sauce with roasted turkey, chicken, or pork.
  • Leftover sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
