Our Take on Homemade Cranberry Sauce
Ingredients
Preparation
In a small saucepan, combine the fresh cranberries, brown sugar, pomegranate concentrate, and lime juice. Bring to a high simmer, or just to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer. Continue to cook until the mixture is thick and the berries are glazed and smashed.
Set the sauce aside to cool, then transfer to a covered container and refrigerate until needed.
Just before serving, fold in the pomegranate seeds and then the persimmons. Sprinkle relish with orange zest.
