Grandma’s Fresh Cranberry Relish
In the olden days, Grandma had to grind everything by hand. Now it takes a few minutes in the food processor!
Note: Prepare this recipe the day before serving as it should rest to develop flavors.
1 bag rinsed fresh cranberries
1 navel orange, with peel (washed)
1 lemon, with peel (washed) - or can use another orange
2 red apples, with peel (washed)
Process cranberries until finely chopped (but not minced); pour into large bowl. Repeat with citrus and apples.
Add: 1 c. chopped walnuts
1 - 2 t. cinnamon
1 c. sugar or honey
Mix together and spoon large glass bowl. Cover. Allow to sit overnight. It will develop a wonderful red syrup. Stir before serving.
You want to put a whole orange, and later a whole lemon into a food processor? Would I be amiss in suggesting a possible alternative?
Core, seed and then cut apples into quarters. Zest the orange and lemon, then peel the orange and remove the sections. Place apples, citrus zest and orange sections into food processor and pulse until solids are finely chopped.
Is this what you intended, or am I coming down with a case of the weird-too-fancies? ;^)
