Wonderful Cranberry Relish Food

FRESH CRANBERRY RELISH

Steps:

• Combine 2 pounds cranberries, 1 cup sugar, 1/4 cup Grand Marnier and the zest and juice of 1 orange in a food processor; pulse until chunky. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes.

CRANBERRY RELISH

Steps:

• Chop or grind cranberries, orange (with rind) and apple (with peel). Make sure you do this in such a way as to conserve all of the juice.
• You can use a food processor or one of the old metal food grinders that clamp to your table - mine drips horribly, but if you have kids helping, it's lots of fun for them to turn the crank and hear the cranberries pop. You could of course chop it all by hand with a knife, but you'll want to chop everything very finely.
• Place fruits and their juices in a serving dish/bowl that will hold 8-10 cups.
• Add diced celery, nuts and crushed pineapple with juice.
• Dissolve jello in recommended amount of boiling water (2 cups), and add to the fruit/nut mixture.
• Depending on how juicy your fruit is, you may not need to add any cold water to the mixture. If you think it will need it, don't add more than 1 cup.
• Depending on the tartness of your fruits, you may or may not want to add some sugar, perhaps 1/2 cup. (I just taste it before putting it in the fridge to set and add sugar if it seems too tart.).
• Refrigerate for several hours till set(overnight is good).

CRANBERRY RELISH I

RAW CRANBERRY RELISH

Steps:

• Place cranberries and fruit including the peels through the food processor.
• Ad the Splenda, and allow to set for a minimum of 3 hours in the refrigerator (Note: the longer the relish is allowed to set in the refrigerator, the more flavorful it becomes). You will want to stir after 3 hours and stir every day - will be good for up to 7 days if stored in a cool, dry environment.
• In making cranberry salad, merely make up a pint of strawberry gelatin (jello works) and when cool, add 2 cups of the relish and one cup of finely cut celery &/or walnuts. Top with Fresh - homemade whipped cream, serve on lettuce leafs for a nice presentation.

MEL'S CRANBERRY RELISH

• Place all fruit in a medium size bowl and stir in the sugar, start with a 1/4 cup, just taste and see, add more to your desired taste.
