The classic accompaniment to English cold meats, Cumberland sauce is made by simmering orange zest, cranberry jelly and lemon juice together over low heat. Its sweet-sour balance makes it a party-table staple alongside cold cuts.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the zest

4 min

Finely grate the orange zest, blanch it in boiling water for 2 minutes and drain to remove any bitterness.

2

Simmer the sauce

6 min

Melt the cranberry jelly over low heat and stir in the orange juice, lemon juice, mustard and ginger.

3

Reduce

8 min

Simmer for 8 minutes to thicken slightly, season with the salt and stir in the blanched orange zest.

4

Cool

10 min

Let the sauce cool to room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.

Reminder

Stir constantly while the sauce simmers, or the jelly can catch and burn on the bottom of the pan.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Using traditional redcurrant jelly instead of cranberry gives a sharper tartness.
