Orange Cranberry Sauce image

Cranberries are one of the few fruits native to the northeastern United States, growing wild in bogs and swamps. Cranberries have become a staple at holiday meals, especially Thanksgiving. This is my kicked-up version of cranberry sauce. Recipes by Emeril Lagasse, from "Farm to Fork," HarperStudio, New York, 2010, courtesy Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Inc.

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 bag (12 ounces) cranberries
Grated zest and juice of 2 oranges
1/4 cup ruby port
3/4 cup sugar, or more to taste
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 cup toasted pecans or walnuts

Steps:

  • Combine the cranberries, orange zest and juice, port, sugar, cinnamon, and cardamom in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries are tender and the sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes.
  • Taste, and add more sugar if desired. Stir in the nuts and set aside to cool. Serve at room temperature. (The sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.)
