As a descendant of Myles Standish, I sponsored a dinner at my bed-and-breakfast a few years back to offer folks some holiday history and a taste of the foods offered at the first Thanksgiving. This relish was one of the menu items.—Standish House, Norman Standish, Lanark, Illinois Ingredients:
3/4 cup orange or apple juice |
2/3 cup sugar |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
dash ground cloves |
1 package (12 ounces) fresh or frozen cranberries |
1/2 cup golden raisins |
1/2 cup chopped pecans |
Directions:
1. In a saucepan, combine juice, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until sugar is dissolved. Add cranberries and raisins; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 3-4 minutes or until cranberries pop. Remove from the heat; stir in nuts. Chill for several hours. Yield: about 3 cups.
