Yield Makes 8 to 10 servings (about 3 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup red-wine vinegar
1/2 cup water
2/3 cup sugar
3 cups fresh or frozen cranberries (12 ounces; not thawed if frozen)
1 (16-ounces) jar sliced pickled beets, drained and quartered

Steps:

  • Bring vinegar, water, and sugar to a boil in a 2-quart heavy saucepan, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Add cranberries and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until berries have burst and mixture is thick, about 20 minutes. Stir in beets and cool. Serve at room temperature or chilled.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to dice the beets and cranberries. This will help them retain their shape and color.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the beets and cranberries by hand. Just be sure to chop them finely so that they blend well with the other ingredients.
  • Be careful not to overcook the beets. They should be tender but still have a slight crunch to them.
  • If you want a sweeter relish, add more sugar or honey to taste.
  • If you want a spicier relish, add more cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to taste.
  • Store the relish in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Cranberry beet relish is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It's perfect for Thanksgiving dinner, but it can also be enjoyed all year round.
