by Susan Lott

The North African spices will bring international flair to your Christmas table. Ginger glazed clementines are a special holiday treat.

• 10 clementines, cut in half
• 1 c. dark brown sugar
• 2 Tbs. fresh grated ginger
• 1 Tbs butter, softened
• 1 tsp. lemon juice
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• ¼ tsp anise extract [or ½ tsp. ground whole anise (not anise seed)]
• 2 drops imitation rum extract

Arrange halved clementines in a baking dish, cut side up. Prick each clementine with a fork a few times so the syrup will seep in. Cream butter and sugar. Add remaining ingredients and combine well. Spread about 1 Tbs sugar mixture on each clementine. Broil for about 3 minutes, until sugar is melted & bubbly. Remove from oven, let cool alittle, and serve.
