Ingredients

1 whole orange, seeds removed, coarsely chopped
1 pound fresh cranberries
1/4 cup currants
1/4 cup golden raisins
1 cup sugar
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 1/2 cups raspberry vinegar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
Pinch salt
Pinch white pepper
2 tablespoons orange liqueur
1 cup coarsely chopped pecans

Directions

In a medium, heavy saucepan combine all ingredients except pecans over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Cook until most of the cranberries have popped open, about 12 minutes. Skim any foam from the top of the surface and stir in the chopped pecans. Allow the conserve to come to room temperature before serving.

Cooked conserve will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator or process in sterilized jars and keep in a cool dark place for up to 6 months.

Easy and Impressive
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I think the recipe is correct. I've been making this four five years too I've always used 12 oz (1-1/2 cups) of raspberry... vinegar. I buy a 12 oz bottle of very good raspberry vinegar. I get requests for it every year. Fantastic!Read more

Excellent and Easy
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

There is a typo on this website's recipe. Only add 1/4 c raspberry vinegar. I originally found this recipe in a magazine in... 2003, and it said 1/4 c. I have made it every Thanksgiving, because family and friends request it. And you really can make it a week or two in advance! How great is that? Read more

SAY IT ISN'T SO!!
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

There's a real problem here. 1-1/2 cups of Raspberry Vinegar?? That's a bottle and a half. I'm sure there is a print... error. I made it for Thanksgiving and it was so sour no one ate it, not even me! I'm Emeril's biggest fan, but this recipe needs to be ammended.Read more
