There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Testing - Red Wine Cranberry Sauce

2/3 cup sugar
3/4 cup dry red wine
1/8 tsp cinnamon
1 package fresh or frozen cranberries (about 12 oz.)
  1. In a saucepan over moderate heat, combine the sugar, red wine and cinnamon; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved and the wine is reduced slightly.
  2. Add the cranberries. Simmer for 10 minutes, or until the cranberries are soft and the sauce has thickened.
  3. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
