"I love this recipe for its ease and texture. Personally I can't stand that cranberry jelly stuff that comes in a can. Blech! Like other users said, the orange peel can add some bitterness, but I've found that if I make this the day before I want to serve, all of the flavors mellow and blend. If you're worried about the orange peel, feel free to leave it out or omit most of it but I've never heard any complaints and I leave it all in there.
