Cranberry Orange Jelly Recipes

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan, combine Lillet, liqueur, sugar and juniper berries if using. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add cranberries and return to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until all the cranberries burst and are very soft, at least 10 minutes total (or use a candy thermometer and cook mixture to 210 to 215 degrees). The mixture should be reduced and thickened, like a very loose jam.
• Strain the sauce into a bowl through a sieve, pushing on the solids with a rubber spatula to extract all the liquid. Discard the solids. Stir the liquid and transfer to a pretty serving bowl or a mold. (If using a mold, spray the insides first with nonstick cooking spray.) A funnel or liquid measuring cup with a spout can be useful for transferring without splashing the sides. Cover and refrigerate for at least three hours, or up to several days. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
• If you chilled the jelly in a mold, turn it out by placing the mold in a large bowl. Carefully pour hot water into the bowl so it comes up the sides of the mold, melting the jelly just enough to release it from the mold. After 3 minutes, try unmolding the jelly onto a serving dish. If it doesn't come out, return to the bowl and try again 2 minutes later. Repeat until the jelly is released. If necessary, return it to the refrigerator to firm up before serving.

Steps:

• Put the cranberries in a saucepan. Remove wide strips of zest from 1/2 orange with a peeler; add to the saucepan with the juice of both oranges (about 1/2 cup). Add the sugar, coriander, a pinch of salt and 1 cup water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until the berries burst and the sauce thickens, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and remove the orange zest; stir in the vanilla. Transfer to a blender and puree until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a serving dish, pushing the sauce through with a rubber spatula. Refrigerate until set, at least 3 hours.

Steps:

• Zest the orange, then supreme the sections (remove the fruit from the white pith completely). Place the orange zest and sections into a food processor and process 3-4 seconds, it should remain chunky. Place the cranberry mixture, sugar and water in a saucepan. Cover the saucepan and cook on medium-low, stirring every couple minutes, for 15 minutes. Pour into *sterilized canning jars and seal as directed. Label the jars and tie ribbons around them for gift giving.
• *Follow the directions on your canning jars for sterilization.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a large stainless or enamel pot. Slowly bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 20-30 minutes.
• Mash with a potato masher to break up fruit, leaving some chunks, but not whole berries.
• Ladle into clean hot jars and seal. Process for 10 minutes at altitudes up to 1000 feet.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Pierce oranges all over with the tines of a fork. Place in boiling water for 10 seconds. Transfer to ice-water bath and let cool. Return oranges to boiling water for 10 more seconds; transfer to ice-water bath to cool. Repeat boiling and cooling process two more times.
• Transfer oranges to freezer until firm, about 15 minutes. Using a mandolin, slice 1/8-inch thick and transfer to a wide shallow saucepan along with 3 cups water, cranberries, and honey; bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.
• Add sugar and pectin and reduce heat to low; cook, stirring, until orange slices are glossy and liquid has reduced to a thickened jamlike consistency. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Jam may be kept in an airtight container, refrigerated, up to 2 days.

Steps:

• Process cranberries in food processor until finely chopped; spoon into medium bowl. Add sugar; mix well.
• Add boiling water to combined dry gelatin mix and cinnamon in large bowl; stir 2 min. until gelatin is completely dissolved. Stir in cold water. Refrigerate 1-1/4 hours or until thickened.
• Stir oranges and cranberry mixture into gelatin mixture. Spoon into 6-cup mold sprayed with cooking spray.
• Refrigerate 4 hours or until firm. Unmold just before serving.

Steps:

• Place the gelatin into a bowl, pour in the boiling water, and stir until the gelatin dissolves. Mix in the cranberry sauce, pineapple, celery, pecans, and orange zest until evenly blended. Pour the gelatin mixture into a mold or serving dish.
• Chill in the refrigerator overnight, or up to 8 hours.
• To make the topping, beat the cream cheese with half of the whipped topping. Fold in the remaining whipped topping until well blended. Unmold the gelatin, and spread with the topping mixture.

Steps:

• Bring boiling-water canner, half full with water, to simmer. Wash jars and screw bands in hot soapy water; rinse with warm water. Pour boiling water over flat lids in saucepan off the heat. Let stand in hot water until ready to use. Drain jars well before filling.
• Measure juice into 6- or 8-qt. saucepot. Stir in pectin. Add butter to reduce foaming. Bring mixture to full rolling boil (a boil that doesn't stop bubbling when stirred) on high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in sugar. Return to full rolling boil and boil exactly 1 min., stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Skim off any foam with metal spoon.
• Ladle immediately into prepared jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of tops. Wipe jar rims and threads. Cover with two-piece lids. Screw bands tightly. Place jars on elevated rack in canner. Lower rack into canner. (Water must cover jars by 1 to 2 inches. Add boiling water, if necessary.) Cover; bring water to gentle boil. Process 5 min. Remove jars and place upright on a towel to cool completely. After jars cool, check seals by pressing middles of lids with finger. (If lids spring back, lids are not sealed and refrigeration is necessary.)

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to about 400 degrees.
• Place cranberries in a large bowl and add the zest of an orange, the juice of the same orange, a large splash (about 2 tablespoons) of real maple syrup, and a large pinch of rosemary. Mix thoroughly.
• Pour about half of cranberry mixture onto center of oven-safe serving dish (I use a glass pie pan). Place the brie round on top of the pile, then pour the remaining mixture over the top of the brie. Place this in the oven and remove when the cranberries are soft and perhaps just starting to burst, and the brie is warmed through (about 15-20 minutes).
• Consume--spoons may help.

Steps:

• Lightly coat a 4-cup mold or dish with cooking spray. In a medium saucepan, bringing remaining ingredients to a rapid simmer over medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until berries burst and mixture thickens to a jamlike consistency, 10 minutes. Transfer to a blender, remove cap from hole in lid, cover lid with a dish towel, and hold down firmly while blending until smooth.
• Working quickly, strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl, stirring and pressing on solids with a rubber spatula; discard solids. Transfer to mold and smooth top. Lightly coat plastic wrap with cooking spray and press against surface; refrigerate until chilled and set, 1 hour. Unmold just before serving.
