1. Wash and drain the cranberries, removing any spoiled berries or foreign objects.
2. In a wide stainless steel skillet, combine wine, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Cook for 1 minute. Add the cranberries and bring to boiling; reduce heat. Boil gently over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes or until skins pop*, stirring occasionally. Stir in the orange peel.
3. Cool completely; remove cinnamon. If desired, smash berries slightly with the back of a spoon for a thicker relish. Spoon into decorative jars. Cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Makes 4 to 5 cups.
*Test Kitchen Tip: For a softer, smoother cranberry sauce, prepare as directed, except boil gently for 20 minutes.
