- Port adds depth and sweetness that balance the tart cranberries, while a quick cook keeps the berries intact and jewel-like instead of mushy.
- Finely chopped orange zest brightens the relish with citrus fragrance, giving it a fresh lift that complements rich holiday dishes.
- With only five ingredients and a fast stovetop method, this make-ahead sauce delivers impressive flavor with minimal effort.
Legendary chef and cookbook writer Edna Lewis and her frequent coauthor Scott Peacock find a real affinity between the flavors of the cranberries and port in this cranberry-orange sauce. The unusual way of cooking the cranberries renders them perfectly done but not mushy, resulting in a relish that sparkles like a dish of jewels.Â
Notes from the Food & Wine Test Kitchen
Fresh cranberries are often only available for sale in U.S. supermarkets in the run up to Thanksgiving and Christmas, but the fruit freezes beautifully. Consider buying a few extra bags and throwing them in the freezer to enjoy this tart, vibrant sauce all year round.
