OCEAN SPRAY FRESH CRANBERRY ORANGE RELISH
This is a very refreshing recipe I have used for years. It comes from the bag of Ocean Spray Cranberries bought in the grocery store. This time of year cranberries are plentiful where I live (in fact I have a huge bag 21 pounds in the refrigerator) so right now I try to give new recipes a try before the fresh ones have to go into the freezer. Give it a try it goes great with your Thanksgiving dinner. Enjoy!

FRESH CRANBERRY RELISH OR SALAD
So much better than cranberries from a can! Has a little zip (Grand Marnier or Congnac). Make at least a day ahead to best enhance the flavors. I got this recipe from Larry Benfield after Thanksgiving one year in the 1980's. Reading his original the oranges were UNPEELED. I have always peeled them.

CEDAR PLANKED FRESH SALMON FILLET WITH SPICED CRANBERRY RELISH
This is a traditional and very special way of cooking the omnipresent and excellent fresh salmon that you find in Canada or the Pacific Northwest in the USA! You just have to remember to soak your cedar plank or shingle for at least 3 - 4 hours prior to cooking. The soy and orange marinated salmon fillet takes on a wonderful smoky flavour when cooked this way, and marries so well with the slightly tart and Oriental flavours of the cranberry relish. Serve with garlic-roasted or steamed new potatoes, wild rice, asparagus and assorted hot or cold salads. Preparation time includes the time to soak the cedar planks. (Planks can be used several times if soaked well and used over indirect heat. After use, rinse the plank thoroughly with warm water. Use a scrubbing brush if needed!) This planked salmon can be grilled or broiled, cooked in a kettle BBQ or over a wood fire.

Steps:
- Soak the cedar plank or shingle in water 3 to 4 hours.
- Combine all relish ingredients in medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat until mixture boils, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat; simmer 8 to 10 minutes or until onion is tender and mixture thickens. Cool.
- Meanwhile, combine soy sauce, orange juice, ground ginger and honey in shallow dish; add the salmon, skin side up. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Heat the grill/broiler to medium-high for indirect heat. Place the soaked plank on or under the grill for 3 to 4 minutes - or until the planks start to spit and crackle. Place the salmon skin side down on to the hot plank; place on or under the grill and grill for 20 to 30 minutes or until flesh is opaque and flakes easily with fork. Continually baste the salmon with the excess marinade as it cooks.
- Or, for those who are going to use a barbecue, light the barbecue and allow it to heat up for about 5 minutes; then place the soaked plank on the grill for 3 to 4 minutes - or until the planks start to spit and crackle. Put the salmon skin side down on to the hot plank and close the lid on the barbecue. You must monitor the cooking as the plank will buckle, crack, smolder and even catch on fire! Baste with excess marinade and cook as before.
- This style salmon can be served in several different ways. If the plank is smoldering, extinguish the smoldering parts of the plank. Using a large serving tray, place kale or rainbow chard leaves around the perimeter of the serving tray and place the plank in the middle of the tray with the leaves partially tucked under the edges of the plank. Serve with garlic roasted or steamed new potatoes, wild rice, steamed asparagus topped with bearnaise sauce and the cranberry relish of course!

Categories Fruit
Number Of Ingredients 6
Steps:
- In food processor, combine zest, orange segments, ginger, and salt. Process a lot! This step is really important or the sugar will be crunchy in the final relish. Remove and put in a separate bowl. Put some cranberries into food processor (however much it can hold and still chop efficiently). If this is half the cranberries, then add half the sugar mixture. Pulse into cranberries and chopped but still quite chunky. Remove to another LARGE separate bowl. Continue with remaining cranberries and sugar mixture until done, continueing to add to LARGE bowl. When all done, stir relish in large bowl to make sure everything is well mixed. Refrigerate until ready to serve (can be done days in advance.)

Steps:
- Place cranberries in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped and well combined. Transfer to a bowl and fold in orange, kumquats, pecans, sugar, pomegranate seeds, and orange peel.
Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor and texture. Avoid using frozen or canned cranberries, as they will not produce the same results.
- Choose firm, plump cranberries. Avoid any cranberries that are soft, bruised, or have mold.
- Wash the cranberries thoroughly before using them. This will help to remove any dirt or debris.
- Use a food processor or a sharp knife to chop the cranberries. If you use a food processor, be careful not to over-process the cranberries, or they will become mushy.
- Add sugar, orange zest, and orange juice to the cranberries. You can also add other ingredients, such as chopped walnuts, pecans, or dried fruit.
- Stir the cranberry mixture well and let it chill for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop.
Conclusion:
Fresh cranberry relish is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It is a classic Thanksgiving side dish, but it can also be used as a condiment for other dishes, such as roasted turkey, chicken, or pork. It is also a great addition to sandwiches, salads, and yogurt parfaits. With its bright red color and tart flavor, fresh cranberry relish is sure to add a festive touch to any meal.
