Cranberries In Red Wine

I believe this is one of james beards' recipes, cut from a newspaper years ago. Pretty tasty! And not as complicated as you may think.

Pick over cranberries , removing stems and any shriveled berries.

Rinse under running water , drain.

Combine sugar and wine in a non-corrosive heavy medium suacepan.

Heat to boiling , stirring constantly , over moderate heat.

Stir in cranberries , cinnamon stick , and orange peel.

Increase heat to high , return mixture to boil , stirring constantly.

Reduce to medium low heat and simmer , partially covered , stirring occasionally until berries burst - about 10- 15 minutes.

Remove from heat.

Discard cinnamon stick.

Lift out orange peel , cool slightly , and cut into thin julienne strips.

Return peel to berries.

Serve warm.
