Author Notes

This incredibly fresh-tasting relish came from an old food magazine - not certain which one. It freezes beautifully, a big plus for my cooking, since I use cranberry sauce/relish in several favorite recipes. Surprizingly, the brilliant color survives the freezing. I usually double the recipe, especially for Thanksgiving. —Lizthechef

Reminds me of the Cranberry Relish at the Bavarian Inn in Frankenmuth Michigan.

Would Clemetines also make a nice swap for tangerines?

I just made this and it is delicious! So simple and quick...so what should I make and scratch off the list next? Maybe your Onion pudding or Spinach Gratin I used some of my Sicilian Blood Orange marmalade in the Cranberry relish.

I like the fresh taste of that relish and am making my batch tomorrow...The onion pudding is a snap to make, quicker than the spinach.

If you are making this and tangerines are not in season, substitute a navel orange!
