CRANBERRY RELISH

This is my mother-in-law's recipe and as far as my husband and son are concerned, it is the most important part of thanksgiving dinner. It's nice to serve this in a glass bowl to show off the festive red color. Preparation time does not include overnight refrigeration.

Time 25m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (12 ounce) bag cranberries
1 (6 ounce) box red Jell-O (pick your favorite red flavor, or use two 3-oz boxes and mix flavors)
1 apple, cored but unpeeled
1 orange, seeded, but unpeeled
1 stalk celery, diced
1/2 cup chopped pecans or 1/2 cup walnuts
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, undrained (I typically use a 16 oz can and it also works fine)
1/4-1/2 cup sugar (optional)

Steps:

  • Chop or grind cranberries, orange (with rind) and apple (with peel). Make sure you do this in such a way as to conserve all of the juice.
  • You can use a food processor or one of the old metal food grinders that clamp to your table - mine drips horribly, but if you have kids helping, it's lots of fun for them to turn the crank and hear the cranberries pop. You could of course chop it all by hand with a knife, but you'll want to chop everything very finely.
  • Place fruits and their juices in a serving dish/bowl that will hold 8-10 cups.
  • Add diced celery, nuts and crushed pineapple with juice.
  • Dissolve jello in recommended amount of boiling water (2 cups), and add to the fruit/nut mixture.
  • Depending on how juicy your fruit is, you may not need to add any cold water to the mixture. If you think it will need it, don't add more than 1 cup.
  • Depending on the tartness of your fruits, you may or may not want to add some sugar, perhaps 1/2 cup. (I just taste it before putting it in the fridge to set and add sugar if it seems too tart.).
  • Refrigerate for several hours till set(overnight is good).

CRANBERRY FRUIT RELISH

This fruity relish requires no cooking - all you need is a blender! Cranberries, oranges, apples, and pineapple (plus some ginger and nutmeg to jazz it up) make this a great change of pace from the usual cranberry sauce. The recipe is from Taste of Home's 2005 Holiday Recipe collection. I haven't tried it yet, but when I make it, I'm going to reduce the sugar. Cook time is chill time.
