Bishop Recipe

Directions

1. 1
   Wash the orange and pierce the skin with the cloves, leaving the buds protruding from the orange skin. Continue until the orange is well studded with cloves.
2. 2
   Place the orange on a baking dish and bake in a preheated 350-degree oven until the skin is lightly toasted, 60 to 90 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.
3. 3
   Heat port and water in a saucepan until gently simmering. Stir in sugar and spices.
4. 4
   Cut the orange into slices and add it and its juice to the pan of port (or you can get fancy and put it all in a warmed bowl) along with cognac, if using. Stir and serve.
