Spiced Cranberry and Orange Relish Recipe

Spiced Cranberry and Orange Relish Recipe

  • 1 1/3 cups sugar
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 2 small navel oranges
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries (8 ounces; thawed if frozen)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 tablespoons minced drained stem ginger in syrup (not pickled) or crystallized ginger
  1. Bring sugar and water to a boil in a 1- to 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Reduce heat and simmer syrup, without stirring, washing down any sugar crystals on side of pan with a pastry brush dipped in cold water, 5 minutes.
  2. While syrup simmers, cut oranges, including peel and pith, into 1-inch pieces, discarding any seeds, and combine with cranberries, cinnamon, and cloves in a food processor.
  3. Add sugar syrup and pulse until fruit is finely chopped. Transfer relish to a bowl and stir in ginger. Chill, covered, 1 day for flavors to develop.
