How to Make Cranberry Orange Relish

  1. Combine 12 ounces fresh cranberries and the zest and juice of 2 large oranges in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped but not completely pureed. Alternatively, use a food grinder.
  2. Transfer the cranberry-orange mixture to a large bowl. Add 1 cup granulated sugar.
  3. Stir well to combine, ensuring the sugar is evenly distributed throughout the relish.
  4. Let the mixture stand for at least 15 minutes, or until the sugar is completely dissolved. This allows the flavors to meld and the relish to thicken slightly.
  5. Pack the cranberry orange relish into freezer-safe containers, leaving about ½ inch of headspace. Freeze for up to 3 months.
