CRANBERRY RELISH

Steps:

• Chop the cranberries in a manual food chopper- NOT a food processor. Chop the apples and the oranges into small cubes with their skins. Add the remaining ingredients and stir well. Allow the flavors to blend overnight or for several hours in the refrigerator. What you are not going to use right away may be frozen.

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

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in an uncovered 3-quart saucepan, and cook over medium heat, stirring often, until most of the cranberries have opened and the mixture is somewhat thickened. Be sure to cook the cranberries until they "pop" in order to release the natural pectin, which thickens the sauce.
• Store in refrigerate for up to 1 day or until ready to use. Relish thickens a bit over time.
• NOTE - If you prefer a smoother sauce, strain the cranberry skins through a fine sieve.
• NOTE - For flavor variation, add ½ cup slivered almonds and 1 cup chopped apple bits with all the other ingredients (in Step #1).
