Ingredients
  

For the Relish
  • 12 ounces Fresh Cranberries Frozen can be substituted
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Adjust to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Orange Zest Freshly grated from one orange
  • 0.5 cup Chopped Nuts (Walnuts or Pecans) Can substitute with other nuts
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon Adjust based on preference

Equipment

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Begin by rinsing your fresh cranberries thoroughly and discarding any that are mushy or damaged.
  2. In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, combine the cranberries and sugar. Cook until the cranberries burst, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the orange zest and ground cinnamon. Allow to simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
  4. Gently fold in your chopped walnuts or pecans, ensuring they are evenly incorporated.
  5. Remove from heat and let cool at room temperature. Transfer to an airtight container and chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving.
  6. Present the relish in small bowls or on a festive platter.
