I made the chutney too, Lee. This year, I added minced jalapeƱos.

CUMBERLAND SAUCE
Makes: 1 1/2 cups

1 cup red currant jelly
1 tablespoon chopped shallots
1 tablespoon orange zest
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 teaspoon English mustard
1/2 cup port wine
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Melt red currant jelly; add shallots, julienned orange and lemon zest and fresh grated ginger. Mix mustard in wine and add to currant jelly. Add orange and lemon juice and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. Season with salt and cayenne pepper.

Finally starting to understand why I'm so drawn to this sauce. . . it turns out that my mother's family started out their settlement in America near the Cumberland Gap!

CellarDweller:
It's time to start looking through holiday recipes.

Front-Ranger:
Oh yes. Making Cumberland Sauce will have a whole new meaning for me this year, after going through the Cumberland Gap on the trail of my ancestors.

CellarDweller:
Yeah, that will be a different experience!
