Cranberry Sauce with Mustard Seeds and Orange

Cranberry Sauce with Mustard Seeds and Orange
Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 large shallot, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped peeled ginger
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon yellow mustard seeds
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 10-ounce bag fresh or frozen cranberries (about 2 cups)
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 strips orange zest (about 4" each)

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the shallot and ginger and cook, stirring, until the shallots are tender and lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the mustard seeds and cinnamon and cook, stirring frequently, until the seeds are toasted and start to pop, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cranberries, sugar, orange zest, and 3/4 cup water and bring to a boil.
  2. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the cranberries start to burst, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool completely. Discard cinnamon stick and orange peel before serving.
