How To Make Cranberry Relish?
Preparing Your Cranberry Relish
Take your mixer grinder and attach it with a medium sized blade. Set it up at the edge of your table and also keep a bowl or a pan to catch the mix as it comes out of the grinder. If yours happens to be a really old grinder that leaks the juice underneath then keep another pan under the grinder to catch that as well. If you do not happen to possess a grinder, you can even chop the mix by hand.
Your Cranberry Relish Is Ready!
This might take a long time so you can even use a food processor but be careful not to over pulse because in that case you will end up with mush. Once the grinder has been set up, run all the fruit through it. Even the peels of the orange should go through it. Once the mix has been collected, add some sugar to it and then mix it again. Let the sugar dissolve for 45 minutes at room temperature. Leave it in the open for a bit. After this you may store in the refrigerator and cool it or keep it for later. The above mentioned amount of fruits is good enough to make 3 cups of cranberry relish.
The Benefits!
The best thing about cranberry relish is that for all its taste, it does not take too much of your time to make it. You can make it at a moment’s notice as it is very easy to do so and all the required ingredients will most likely be already at home.
