Time 35m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 dried ancho chile peppers (stems removed)
Pinch of baking soda
1 pound cranberries (fresh or frozen)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
Kosher salt
1/2 cup raisins

Steps:

  • Toast the chiles in a dry medium saucepan over medium heat, turning occasionally, about 5 minutes. Add 2 cups water and the baking soda. Remove from the heat and let stand 10 minutes. Transfer the chiles and liquid to a blender and puree until smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into the saucepan, pressing the mixture through with a rubber spatula.
  • Add the cranberries, sugar, maple syrup and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the sauce thickens, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the raisins. Let cool.
  • Transfer the cranberry sauce to a bowl and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
