Break away from tradition and serve this tasty alternative to plain ol' cranberry sauce. The mild rum and clove flavors give it a homey, comforting feel that pairs well with traditional Thanksgiving dishes. —Amy Nutoni, La Crescent, Minnesota
Ingredients:
8 whole cloves
1 large navel orange
1 package (15 ounces) golden raisins
1 package (12 ounces) fresh or frozen cranberries
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup rum
1 cinnamon stick (3 inches)
Directions:
1. Place cloves on a double thickness of cheesecloth; bring up corners of cloth and tie with string to form a bag. Set aside.
2. Using a citrus zester, remove zest from orange in narrow strips. Peel and chop the orange; set aside.
3. In a small saucepan, combine the raisins, cranberries, sugar, water, rum, cinnamon, spice bag and chopped orange. Cook over medium heat until berries pop, about 15 minutes.
4. Remove from the heat; discard spice bag and cinnamon stick. Stir in orange zest. Transfer to a small bowl; cool slightly. Refrigerate until chilled. Yield: 4 cups.
