  • oranges2

    zest and juice

  • star anise1

    (optional)

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Place a small plate in the refrigerator to chill. Transfer the cranberries, orange zest and juice, star anise, cinnamon stick, cloves and sugar into a heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30‑35 minutes, stirring frequently, until the cranberries swell and the liquid evaporates – it should become thick and jam‑like. Put a teaspoon of jam on the chilled plate and let it cool. After cooling, run a finger over the jam – if it wrinkles, it’s ready. If not, cook for another 5 minutes and check again.

  2. 2

    Let it cool for 10 minutes, then remove the whole spices and, if desired, add the glitter, mixing well. Transfer into sterilized jam jars and seal with lids. Store in a cool, dark place for up to three months or in the refrigerator for up to one month after opening.
