Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
2poundsFresh Or Frozen Cranberries
4pintsKumquats
4cupsWater
2cupsWalnut Or Pecan Halves
4cupsSugar Or Other Sweetener Taste
2tablespoonsGrated; Fresh Ginger Or Ground To Taste
2Envelopes unflavored gelatin; (optional)

Directions

Slice kumquats crosswise into ¼ inch slices. Place kumquat slices and cranberries in large pot with enough water to barely cover. Add ginger, and about half the sugar. The rest will be added later, after tasting during cooking. Cover pot and bring to a boil. Boil until all cranberries are popped. Reduce heat, taste for sweetness and adjust. If a thicker sauce is desired, soften gelatin in a little bit of cold water and add to sauce.

Cover and simmer for about 10 minutes to allow flavors to blend. Add nuts, which may be left in halves or coarsely chopped. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Refrigerate before serving.

Serving Ideas: Great with poultry or ham, as well as pork and veal.
