Cranberries with a Kick

But there are a lot of new twists on this old favorite, ones with orange and ginger flavors, to name a couple.
Here’s one with a kick—from chile pepper, in combination with cinnamon.
This recipe comes from foodbuzz.com.
Fiery Cinnamon Cranberry Sauce – By Marc Matsumoto.
12 oz bag of cranberries washed and picked through for stems
1 C sugar
1 C water
2 cinnamon sticks (try using Vietnamese cinnamon if you can get your hands on some)
1 tsp grated cinnamon
1 hot pepper
Add the sugar, water, cinnamon and pepper to a sauce pan and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
Add the cranberries and continue to simmer for another 10 minutes.
Pour the cranberry sauce into a bowl and allow it to cool completely, then cover and refrigerate until you’re ready to serve it.
