This classic uncooked relish gets an aromatic edge from cinnamon, cloves, and ginger. Ingredients:
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 |
Directions:
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. 4. Cooks' note: Relish can be chilled up to 1 week. |
