The Oregonian






List of Ingredients



• 1 cup water
  
• 1 cup granulated sugar
  
• 2 cups fresh cranberries
  
• 1/2 cup dried cherries
  
• 2 Tbsp cider vinegar
  
• 1 Tbsp firmly packed light brown sugar
  
• 2-1/2 tsp minced fresh ginger
  
• 1 whole cinnamon stick, broken in half
  
• 2 tsp grated orange zest
  






Instructions



1. Combine water and granulated sugar in medium, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved, then bring to a boil without stirring.
   
   
2. Add cranberries, cherries, vinegar, brown sugar, ginger and cinnamon. Stir to mix, then bring to a simmer; lower heat slightly and cook until mixture is thickened, about 5 minutes.
   
   
3. Remove from heat and stir in orange zest. Carefully, with tongs or a slotted spoon, remove and discard cinnamon stick halves. Cool mixture to room temperature; then cover and refrigerate. (Marmalade can also be frozen; defrost in the refrigerator a day ahead.)
   
   Makes 2 cups.
