Cranberry Maple Jelly Recipes

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:

• Lightly oil mold. Bring cranberries, sugar, and 3 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan, then reduce heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cranberries burst and are completely softened, about 10 minutes. Pour through a fine sieve set over a bowl, pressing very firmly on solids to release as much juice as possible (you should have 4 cups; if not, add water to make 4 cups). Skim any foam from surface. Stir in maple syrup.
• Transfer 1 cup cranberry liquid to a clean saucepan, and bring to a simmer. Meanwhile, sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup water in a small bowl, and let soften 1 minute. Stir gelatin mixture into hot liquid until gelatin dissolves completely. Pour cranberry-gelatin mixture into cranberry-maple mixture, and stir to combine. Place bowl in a larger bowl of ice water. Let cool, stirring occasionally, until cool to the touch and beginning to thicken, about 15 minutes. Pour mixture into mold, and refrigerate until set, at least 8 hours and up to 2 days.
• To unmold, dip top of mold into a bowl of hot water 30 seconds, then run a thin-bladed knife around edge to loosen. Place a serving platter on bottom of mold, and quickly invert. Tap to release, and remove mold. (If jelly doesn't release easily, return to hot water for a few seconds.)

Steps:

• Combine water and maple syrup in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Add cranberries to syrup mixture and cook at a boil until berries pop, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir brown sugar and lemon juice into cranberries until brown sugar is completely dissolved. Mix in brandy.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, combine cranberry juice and sugar. Bring to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in pectin. Boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly., Remove from the heat; skim off foam. Carefully ladle hot liquid into hot half-pint jars, leaving 1/4-in. headspace. Remove air bubbles; wipe rims and adjust lids. Process for 10 minutes in a boiling-water canner.

Steps:

• Lightly oil mold; prepare an ice water bath in a large bowl.
• In a large saucepan, bring cranberries, sugar, and 3 cups water to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until cranberries burst and are completely softened, about 10 minutes.
• Pour cranberries through a fine sieve, set over a bowl, pressing to release as much juice as possible (you should get about 4 cups, if not add water to equal 4 cups).
• Skim off any foam from the surface; stir in maple syrup.
• Transfer 1 cup of the liquid to a clean saucepan and bring to a simmer.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup water; let soften 1 minute.
• Stir gelatin mixture into hot cranberry liquid in the saucepan; mix gelatin mixture into cranberry maple syrup mixture and stir well to completely combine.
• Set bowl into prepared ice water bath, stirring occasionally, to cool.
• After about 15 minutes, it should be beginning to thicken, then pour into oiled mold, and refrigerate until set, at least 8 hours, but can be made up to 2 days in advance.
• To unmold, dip the top of the mold into a bowl of hot water and run a thin knife around the edge of the mold to loosen the jelly; place the serving dish on top and invert to plate (if it doesn't release easily, repeat).
