Ingredients

  • 2 dried chipotle chiles*
  • 1 12-ounce package fresh or frozen cranberries
  • 1 1/3 cups sugar
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 small garlic clove, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon (generous) ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon (generous) ground cumin

Method

  • Place chiles in medium saucepan filled with water; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until chiles are tender, adding more water if needed to keep chiles submerged, 1 to 11/2 hours, depending on dryness of chiles. Drain.
  • Combine softened chipotles, cranberries, sugar, and lemon juice in heavy medium saucepan and stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Continue cooking until cranberries begin to pop, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, cinnamon, and cumin. Simmer until sauce thickens slightly and flavors meld, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Cool.
  • Remove chipotles. Stem and seed. Mince chiles and return to cranberry sauce; stir to distribute. Cover and chill. DO AHEAD:
