Tips:

  • Prep the Ingredients: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients are prepped and ready to go. This will save you time and hassle while you're cooking.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh cranberries and beets will give your relish the best flavor. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries that have been thawed.
  • Don't Overcook the Relish: The relish should be cooked until the cranberries and beets are softened, but not mushy. Overcooking will make the relish too thick and syrupy.
  • Taste the Relish as You Cook: Adjust the seasonings to your taste. You may want to add more sugar, vinegar, or spices.
  • Let the Relish Cool: Before serving, let the relish cool slightly so that it thickens up. You can also refrigerate the relish for later use.
