Cabernet-Cranberry Sauce With Figs
- 1 cup Cabernet Sauvignon
- 6 ounces dried calimyrna figs, stems trimmed and figs coarsely chopped (1 cup)
- 1 (12-ounce) bag fresh or frozen cranberries
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3 (3- by 1/2-inch) strips orange zest
- Bring wine to a boil with figs in a small saucepan, then remove from heat and steep figs, covered, until tender, about 30 minutes. Strain mixture through a sieve into a medium heavy saucepan and reserve figs in a small bowl.
- Add cranberries, sugar, and zest to wine and bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Adjust heat and continue to simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until cranberries burst and mixture is thickened slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat and discard orange zest strips, then stir in figs. Let cool completely.
