Increase the heat to medium and cook until the cranberries burst, about 12 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the reserved cranberries. Add sugar, salt and pepper to taste.

Tips for Making Cranberry-Orange-Cilantro Salsa

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. Frozen cranberries can be used in a pinch, but they will not be as tart or flavorful.
  • If you don't have any oranges on hand, you can substitute another citrus fruit, such as grapefruit or lemon.
  • Be sure to chop the cilantro finely. This will help to distribute its flavor throughout the salsa.
  • If you like a spicy salsa, you can add a jalapeño pepper or two. Just be sure to remove the seeds first.
  • Serve the salsa immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion

Cranberry-Orange-Cilantro Salsa is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used to top tacos, burritos, nachos, or grilled chicken. It's also great as a dip for tortilla chips or vegetables. With its tart and tangy flavor, this salsa is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
