My favorite side dish at Thanksgiving time is the cranberry sauce. It's probably because I'm a sweet tooth at heart. It's the best excuse for eating a jam-like side dish with your dinner! I grew up eating the classic canned cranberry sauce, but since then I've experimented with plenty of homemade versions, too. And this one is the recipe I'm most proud of.

I combine my two heritages as a Hungarian American to bring you this cranberry-quince compote. Cranberries are native to North America and quince are very popular here in eastern Europe. Finding cranberries here in Hungary; however, is a feat in itself, but whenever I do find a few bags, I can easily marry my two cultures in this Thanksgiving side dish.

Since quince originates from the East, I love to riff on that exotic origin by using pomegranate molasses, cinnamon, and nutmeg. I also use some good Hungarian white wine to add even more complex flavor. You'll find that this exotic version of cranberry sauce is great with many different meats. I'd recommend it with roast duck or goose, venison, or even a simple grilled chicken breast. It's really that versatile!

Happy Thanksgiving!
