Blood Orange Cranberry sauce with Pomegranate

Seed the pomegranate in a bowl of water. Pick through carefully to remove all the bitter white membrane. If the pomegranate is particularly sour you may want to add extra sugar to the recipe.

 

 

 

1 bag of cranberries

2 blood oranges

Zest of one blood orange

3/4 cup brown sugar

2 TBS butter

2 tsp corn starch

1 large Pomegranate seeded

 

 

 

Juice the oranges.

In a small bowl whisk corn starch & 3 TBS orange juice.

Heat remaining juice & butter on medium heat in a saucepan.

When butter is melted whisk in cornstarch mixture.

Stir in brown sugar until blended.

Add cranberries & zest stirring frequently until cranberries pop.

Pour in to serving bowl. Let cool for 10 minutes. Stir in pomegranate seeds.

Serve warm or chilled.

    Wow! Cool. We’ve got a lot of cranberries and will probably get more with our farm share this week.

    Here’s a silly question… do you just eat the pomegranate seeds? I thought it was just the juicy part that’s yummy?

    My brother & I have debated this for years. I eat the whole seed he spits out the hard part. I think it is just a matter of taste but I suspect the seed has good nutritional value. Probably adds fiber & such. If you are eating it in a relish there is no delicate way to spit out the seeds in front of company.
