This is grown up cranberry sauce to go with turkey or poultry. It is different from the rest due to the Kosher salt and pepper. It is a bit tarter than the sweet kind but perfect to compliment any meal. The orangy nutmeg flavor and the cinnamon stick addition make this a winner. The ease of making makes you not want to go back to canned ever. From a small town site fairoaks carmichael patch.The sauce is not overly thick or overly runny. It is spot on. If you want it sweeter add sugar to taste and ease on the salt and pepper. Brings out the meats' flavor. Enjoy! ChefDLH. Ingredients:
1 (12 ounce) bag cranberries |
2 oranges (only the zest of 2 oranges, save 1/2 orange for below and save the rest for another purpose) |

1/2 cup brown sugar |
1/2 cup white sugar |
2 cinnamon sticks |
