How to Make Cranberry Burgundy Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine cranberries, Burgundy wine, sugar, orange juice, orange zest, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the cranberries have burst and the sauce has thickened slightly. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
  4. Remove from heat and let the sauce cool slightly before using. Taste and adjust sweetness or spices as needed.
  5. Spoon generously over roasted ham or chicken during the last 15 minutes of cooking. Alternatively, serve the sauce alongside your main course.
