There is something truly magical about this sweet, tangy, and spicy sauce that is especially good on pork and poultry. Try it as a spread over room temperature cream cheese for a delightfully different appetizer. If you prefer a smoother sauce, simply whir in a blender to the desired consistency before chilling.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 cups fresh cranberries, picked over (may use frozen)
  • 2 Tablespoons diced green chile peppers (jalapeno, serrano, or your favorite - may use canned)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard

Preparation:

Place water, white sugar, and brown sugar in a heavy saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir until sugar is dissolved.

Add cranberries, chiles, and ground allspice to sugar mixture. Return to a slow boil, then simmer for about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Dijon mustard.

Let cool completely, then refrigerate.

Use Cranberry Jezebel Sauce as a condiment for pork and poultry or spread over room temperature cream cheese as an appetizer.

Yield: about 2-1/2 cups
