Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 oranges
2 (750 milliliter) bottles red wine
1 (750 milliliter) bottle white wine
1 (3 inch) piece of fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
3 cinnamon sticks
½ teaspoon ground cloves
⅓ cup brown sugar, or to taste
¼ cup brandy

Steps:

  • Use a sharp knife or a vegetable peeler to remove the zest from the oranges in strips, being careful to remove only the orange part, leaving the pith behind. Then, juice the oranges into a large, heavy-bottomed pot.
  • Pour the red wine and white wine into the pot with the orange juice. Place the strips of orange zest, ginger, cinnamon sticks, cloves, and brown sugar into the pot with the wine mixture; stir to dissolve the sugar.
  • Cover and heat over medium-high until heated through, but not boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and heat for an hour or longer to bring all of the flavors together. Adjust the sweetness by adding more brown sugar, as necessary. Strain and serve hot with a splash of brandy, if desired.

Categories     Low Protein

Time 10m

Yield 13 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

cheesecloth
2 (3 inch) cinnamon sticks
2 teaspoons whole cloves
1 teaspoon whole allspice
6 cups fruity red wine (such as Beaujolais or Pinot Noir)
6 cups apple cider
3/4 cup sugar
1 orange, thinly sliced
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 lime, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Place first 3 ingredients on an 8" square of cheesecloth; tie with string. Place spice bag in a Dutch oven. Add red wine and remaining 5 ingredients; bring to a simmer over low heat (do not boil). Keep at a simmer while serving. Ladle into mugs.
  • Note: For a nonalcoholic version, omit wine and substitute more apple cider.

Tips:

  • Use Fresh Spices: Freshly ground spices provide more flavor than pre-ground spices. If possible, grind your own spices just before using them.
  • Toast Your Spices: Toasting spices in a dry skillet over medium heat for a few minutes can enhance their flavor.
  • Layer Your Flavors: Combine different types of spices to create a complex flavor profile. For example, you can combine sweet spices like cinnamon and nutmeg with savory spices like cumin and paprika.
  • Use a Light Hand: A little bit of spice goes a long way. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Experiment: Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and combinations. The best way to learn how to use spices is to experiment and see what you like.

Conclusion:

Spices are a versatile and delicious way to add flavor to your food. With a little knowledge and experimentation, you can use spices to create dishes that are both flavorful and healthy. So next time you're cooking, don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. You might be surprised at how much you enjoy them!
