Cranberry Sauce Recipe With Orange
Join me on a journey to make this Thanksgiving condiment, the best Cranberry Sauce Recipe with Orange. With no added sugar, my cranberry sauce has a much more complex and interesting flavor to it — and it keeps for weeks when properly preserved in a canning bath.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cranberries (dried)
- 2 oranges
- 1 cup cranberry juice
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon mustard seeds
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 sprig rosemary
- 1 stick cinnamon
- Salt to taste
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Assemble all the tools and ingredients.
- Zest the oranges, remove the pith and slice finely.
- Sterilize the canning jars, if using.
Cooking Steps
- Put the oranges, orange zest, cranberries, cranberry juice, mustard seeds, honey, rosemary, and cinnamon stick in a saucepan, with half a cup of water..
- Place over medium-high heat, bring to a boil, then turn down to a simmer at medium-low heat.
- Cook for about 10-15 minutes until the cranberries have plumped up and the orange slices collapsed into the sauce.
- Mix the cornstarch to a slurry with 1 tablespoon of water.
- Add the cornstarch slurry and stir to combine. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens, then turn off the heat. Season with salt to taste, and remove the cinnamon quill and rosemary sprig.
- Leave to cool slightly for about 5-10 minutes before transferring to sterilized jars, and sealing with sterilized lids.
- Process the sealed jars in a canning bath for 10 minutes for long-term preservation.
