Default Cranberry Relish, sweet and spicy


We love this relish. I'm asked to make it every year for Thanksgiving
and I do so happily.

Let's get started by zesting an orange. I don't use a microplane for
this, I like the orange curls.

Then, juice the orange.

and orange zest.

Stir to dissolve sugar, cook until cranberries pop.

Divide berries between two bowls.

To one bowl add the pepper jelly. I add the whole 10oz jar.

and spices. I used the ulu to make quick work of them.

Peel the oranges and

slice the segments into the other bowl.

Stan thinks the spicy sauce would be great with pork also.
