Cranberry-Satsuma Relish image

To jazz up this easy five-ingredient cranberry sauce, we used everything the seasonal satsuma tangerine has to offer-from juicy fruit segments to fragrant zest. A generous tipple of a bold red wine went in while the fruits simmered together, perfuming the room with holiday cheer.

Time 30m

Yield Makes 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound satsuma mandarins (3 to 5)
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup full-bodied red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon
1 1/4 pounds fresh cranberries, rinsed and drained; or frozen cranberries (6 cups)
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Finely grate zest of satsumas into a bowl. Peel and section fruits, removing as much stringy membrane as possible, then seed and coarsely chop flesh; transfer with any juices to bowl.
  • Combine sugar and wine in a large nonreactive saucepan. Bring to a vigorous simmer over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Stir in cranberries and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring constantly, until some of the cranberries begin to burst and collapse, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Stir in satsuma zest, flesh, and juices; cook 1 minute more. (Relish should be chunky and not too broken down, with some cranberries still intact.) Let cool completely in pan, stirring a few times, before serving. Relish can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 1 week.
