How can you get ahead of the holidays? Make this zesty cranberry orange relish for your Thanksgiving table. It freezes well, so you can make it this week and cross something off your to-do list!
Sharon’s Cranberry Relish
There are many variations of a relish similar to this one. I don’t know where I got the recipe, but I make it every year and the flavors are so bright (especially beside the rich flavors of traditional Thanksgiving dishes) that my mother and I have been known to eat it alone with a spoon.
- 2 cups whole cranberries, washed
- 1 whole orange, washed
- 1 cup sugar
- ¼ cup mint leaves (reserve a few sprigs for garnish)
- dash of cayenne (optional)
Blend all ingredients in a food processor until it is a finely chopped relish. Garnish with mint leaves for serving.
cheers!
