MANDARIN ORANGE CRANBERRY SAUCE



Mandarin Orange Cranberry Sauce image

Mandarin Orange Cranberry sauce was always a staple at holiday meals when I was a kid, and this year I grilled my pops for the recipe!

Provided by Becky Striepe

Categories     Side Dish

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 14 ounce can whole cranberry sauce (NOT the jelly kind - you want whole berries in there)
1 15 ounce can mandarin oranges (drained)
1/4 cup raisins
2 tablespoons lemon juice (OR triple sec)
1/4 cup toasted walnuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine all of the ingredients in the bowl you're going to use for serving, stirring gently so you don't break up the orange pieces too much.
  • Chill for at least an hour before serving, so the raisins can soak up the lemon juice and the juice from the sauce. You can make this a couple of days ahead if you like - it keeps beautifully for up to a week.

GRAND MARNIER CRANBERRY SAUCE WITH ORANGES



Grand Marnier Cranberry Sauce With Oranges image

This recipe is my family's favorite recipe for cranberry sauce. It appeared in a local newspaper about 10 years ago and I have made it every year since then. I always make two sauces if I'm having more than 8 guests - the other is usually Cranberry Sauce with Pears and Cardamom, which is very different from this sauce and gives people a choice of very different flavors and textures. I've always used Grand Marnier instead of the other choices of orange liqueur or orange juice concentrate, although when it comes to the fruit, I've used Minneola (aka Honeybell) or Orlando Tangeloes instead of Naval oranges. Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do!

Provided by KK7707

Categories     Berries

Time 30m

Yield 3 cups, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 navel oranges
1 (12 ounce) bag cranberries
2 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup water
3 tablespoons orange liqueur or 3 tablespoons orange juice concentrate

Steps:

  • Grate 2 teaspoons zest from the oranges and set aside.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut away and discard the thick white pith from the oranges. Carefully cut between the membranes to release the orange sections. Set the orange sections in a colander to drain off the excess juice. (If you add the juice to the pan, it will be too watery.).
  • In a medium, heavy-bottomed, nonreactive saucepan, combine the cranberries, sugar, water and the zest. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often to help dissolve the sugar. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the sauce is thick and the cranberries have burst, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • During the last few minutes, stir in the orange sections.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the Grand Marnier.
  • Cool completely.
  • The cranberry sauce can be prepared up to 1 week ahead, covered and refrigerated. Serve at room temperature or chilled.

FRESH ORANGE-CRANBERRY SAUCE WITH WALNUTS



Fresh Orange-Cranberry Sauce with Walnuts image

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Sauce     Berry     Fruit     Nut     Christmas     Thanksgiving     Vegetarian     Cranberry     Orange     Walnut     Fall     Winter     Vegan     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 12-ounce bag cranberries
1 cup sugar
1 cup fresh orange juice
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1 medium seedless orange, all peel and pith cut away, fruit diced
3/4 cup walnuts, toasted, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Combine first 4 ingredients in medium saucepan; bring to boil over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Cook until cranberries are tender and mixture thickens, stirring occasionally, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix in orange pieces and walnuts. Transfer to bowl. Cover and chill until cold, at least 2 hours and up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries have a more vibrant flavor than frozen or canned cranberries. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries, but be sure to thaw them before using.
  • Don't overcook the sauce: Cranberry sauce should be cooked until the cranberries have softened and burst, but not so long that they become mushy. Overcooked cranberry sauce will lose its flavor and texture.
  • Add sugar to taste: The amount of sugar you add to the cranberry sauce will depend on your personal preference. If you like your sauce tart, you can add less sugar. If you like your sauce sweet, you can add more sugar.
  • Add flavorings: You can add a variety of flavorings to cranberry sauce, such as orange zest, cinnamon, cloves, or ginger. These flavorings will help to enhance the flavor of the cranberries.
  • Serve the sauce warm or cold: Cranberry sauce can be served warm or cold. Warm cranberry sauce is a great accompaniment to roasted turkey or chicken. Cold cranberry sauce is a refreshing side dish for salads or sandwiches.

Conclusion:

Fresh cranberry sauce is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. Whether you like your cranberry sauce tart or sweet, with or without flavorings, there is a recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a side dish to serve with your holiday meal, give fresh cranberry sauce a try. You won't be disappointed!
