Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 ounces Fresh cranberries
- 1 cup Burgundy wine
- 3 quarters cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Orange juice
- 1 Zest of one orange
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
Instructions
Rinse the fresh cranberries under cold water and set them aside to drain.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the burgundy wine, granulated sugar, and orange juice. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar completely dissolves.
Stir in the orange zest, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, and a pinch of salt.
Add the cranberries to the saucepan and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the cranberries burst and the sauce begins to thicken.
Stir in the vanilla extract and simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the sauce to cool for 5-10 minutes. It will thicken further as it cools.
Transfer the cranberry burgundy sauce to a serving dish or store it in an airtight container. Serve warm or at room temperature.
