SPICY RED PEPPER CRANBERRY RELISH



Spicy Red Pepper Cranberry Relish image

A kicky condiment, usually made with cranberries, can offset the neutral (read: bland) yet rich nature of the Thanksgiving meal. This hot red-pepper cranberry relish with jalapeños and cayenne fits the bill. You can keep the seasoning somewhat tame, or ramp up the heat to taste. It will keep for 2 weeks or so; make it in advance, as soon as cranberries are available, and have it on hand in the fridge through the holiday season.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     condiments, dips and spreads, sauces and gravies, side dish

Time 30m

Yield About 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup sugar
2 large jalapeños, preferably red, seeded and finely diced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1 tablespoon grated ginger
12 ounces cranberries

Steps:

  • Put sugar, jalapeños, lemon juice, salt and cayenne in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup water, then stir with a wooden spoon to dissolve sugar, and simmer 2 minutes.
  • Add ginger and cranberries, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and let mixture cook, stirring occasionally, until cranberries have softened and no liquid remains in pan, about 15 minutes.
  • Let cool and taste. Add more cayenne or jalapeños if desired. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Yield Makes 8 to 12 servings (about 4 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 7

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

Steps:

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor and more nutrients than frozen or canned cranberries.
  • Chop the cranberries coarsely. This will help them retain their shape and texture in the relish.
  • Use a variety of citrus fruits. The combination of oranges, lemons, and limes gives the relish a complex flavor.
  • Add some sweetness. Sugar or honey will help to balance out the tartness of the cranberries.
  • Add some spices. Ground cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg are all classic holiday spices that pair well with cranberries.
  • Let the relish chill for at least 2 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Cranberry relish is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed with a variety of dishes. It's perfect for Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas dinner, or any other holiday gathering. It's also a great way to use up leftover cranberries. So next time you have a bag of cranberries on hand, be sure to give this recipe a try!
