Cumberland Game Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onions in the hot oil, until nearly dark brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Pour wine into the saucepan, bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, about 1 minute; remove pan from heat.
• Stir currant jelly, orange juice, orange zest, lemon zest, lemon juice, brown sugar, black pepper, mustard powder, ginger, cayenne pepper, and salt into onion mixture until combined.
• Bring sauce to a boil; remove from heat.

Steps:

• Blanch the rind in boiling water.
• Combine jelly, wine, juice, mustard, and ginger (reserve 3 tbs of the orange juice) and bring to a boil.
• Combine cornstarch with reserved juice and add to boiling mixture.
• Add lemon, cayenne, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until thickened.
• Strain the sauce and add the blanched orange rind.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a large saucepan and bring to a boil, over medium high heat.
• Stir until sugar dissolves.
• Reduce heat to medium low and simmer until currants have popped and sauce thickens, about 15 minutes.
• Cool, cover, and refrigerate overnight.

Steps:

• Peel the thin outside rind of the lemon and orange. Cut into shreds and put in a small saucepan. Add the water and bring to a boil. Simmer seven minutes. Scoop out and discard the shreds.
• Squeeze the juice from the lemon and orange and set aside.
• Add the Port, jelly, vinegar, mustard, salt, cayenne and lemon and orange juice.
• Bring to the boil and let simmer five minutes. Let cool. Serve.

Steps:

• Put a saucepan of water on to boil. Pare the zest of the orange and lemon, taking as little of the white pith as possible, then cut into long fine shreds. Drop into the boiling water and leave to simmer for 5 minutes to soften them and remove any bitterness. Drain.
• Put the jelly, mustard and port into a saucepan and stir, then whisk, over a low heat until smoothly amalgamated. Bring up to the boil; add the blanched orange and lemon zest, the ginger and a little salt and freshly ground black pepper. Simmer gently for 5 minutes. Pour into a serving jug or bowl, and then leave to cool.
