[Sca-cooks] OT&OOP-Cranberries

[tudorpot at gmail.com]

We make this every year. You will never go back to plain cranberry  
sauce from the can.

Confit of cranberries:

1 lb (450 g) cranberries
4 oz (110 g) granulated sugar
15 fl oz (425 ml) red wine
2 tablespoons best quality red wine vinegar
grated zest and juice of 1 orange

To make the confit, place the cranberries in a saucepan with the rest  
of the ingredients. Bring the mixture up to a very gentle simmer,  
give it all a good stir and let it barely simmer without a lid for  
about an hour, stirring from time to time. What you end up with is a  
concentrated mass of glazed cranberries which tastes absolutely  
wonderful. Remove it from the heat, leave to cool then spoon it into  
a serving bowl and cover until needed.

You can use Port instead of wine. From Delia Smith
