SOUTHWESTERN CORN AND CRANBERRY SALAD



Southwestern Corn and Cranberry Salad image

Dried cranberries should be plump and firm in the bag, not dried up or hard. They should also have a distinct cranberry smell. Look for packages that have no added sugar. As a note, there's no salt in the recipe because the canned chiles have quite a bit of sodium.

CRANBERRY SAUCE WITH CHILES



Cranberry Sauce With Chiles image

Heat is an integral aspect of Southwestern cooking, so it's no surprise that local chiles of all kinds accent the flavor of Thanksgiving. Cooks put them in everything from Hatch turkey rubs to chipotle mashed potatoes to chiltepin cranberry sauce, which uses the small, round, fiery hot chiles that are native to Arizona and northern Mexico. You can make this sauce a day ahead and chill it; if it's too stiff for your tastes when you remove it from the fridge, add a little water and sugar, reheat until simmering and then cool once more. (And for everything you need to know about cranberry sauce, check out our cranberry sauce guide.)

Yield 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

Zest of 2 limes (2 teaspoons), divided
1 to 2 dried chiltepin, chile pequin or bird chiles, to taste, crushed in a spice mill or a mortar and pestle, or 1/2 teaspoon crushed chile pequin
1 1/4 pounds cranberries (4 1/2 cups)
Zest of 1/2 orange
3/4 cup sugar, more to taste
2 cloves, crushed in a mortar and pestle or ground in a spice mill
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Set aside the zest of 1 lime (about 1 teaspoon) for garnish. In a large saucepan, combine all the remaining ingredients with 1/4 cup water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until thick, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Transfer to a serving dish and allow to cool. (Sauce will continue to thicken.) Garnish with the reserved lime zest.
