Ingredients
- 1 Bag Fresh Cranberries
- 2 Cups Sugar
- 1/4 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Nutmeg
- Orange Zest
- Chili Pepper Flakes
- Chopped nuts, such as pecans
Directions
- In medium saucepan, pour rinsed cranberries and add 1 cup water. Bring this to a simmer.
- Add the sugar and freshly ground nutmeg, and continue to simmer until reduced by about half, about ten minutes. Stir in any optional mixins you've chosen to use.
- The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools. You can make it up to 5 days in advance and store it in the refrigerator, or prepare fresh the day of.
