Cranberry-Orange Relish

I bought a bag of cranberries at Giant Food today, and have made a batch of cranberry-orange relish. I boiled twelve ounces of cranberries with a cup of water, three quarters of a cup of turbinado sugar, a half teaspoon of cloves, and a substantial dash of cinnamon, letting the cranberries pop. Meanwhile, I chopped an orange into small pieces, and put it in a food processor with water, then stirred it into the hot cranberries, and kept the heat on for a minute to heat the puréed orange as well, although I hope not long enough to destroy all the vitamin C. It’s cooling now, and will go into the refrigerator for later consumption.

You know, I'm not one for cranberries, but that does sound good, almost like a chutney... yum!!

If you have a Kitchenaid/Hobart-type stand mixer, you can make cranberry relish using a no-heat process with it. Basically let the blade pulverize the berries (washed, of course) into goo then add the add'l ingredients. It's somewhat noisy until the berries break down, but it would preserve all the nutrients.
