Relish the Goodness

Here's the cranberry recipe I made up and am making as we speak. I've been trying a new one every year...so far this one seems like a keeper but you never know till it's on that bird.

Cranberry with a Kick

Serves 8

· 1 bag (12 ounces) fresh or frozen cranberries

· 3/4 cup sugar

· ½ cup brown sugar

· 2 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

· 1 tbsp red-wine vinegar

· 1 tbsp cider vinegar

· 1/2-1 jalapeno, minced

· orange zest (1/2 orange)

· ¼ cup dried cranberries

Directions

1. In a large saucepan, bring cranberries, sugar, ginger, vinegar, jalapeno, and 2 tablespoons water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until most of the cranberries have popped, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in zest and dried cranberries.

2. Remove relish from heat. Let cool to room temperature, and serve (or refrigerate in an airtight container up to 3 days).

"Aaaat Laaast!" (as Etta James would say)... I found your French Onion Soup Recipe. I had to filter through every darling picture of Etta to find it so I enjoyed searching for it ;o)

I'm excited to make it... I may be calling you with some questions.

Enjoy Thanksgiving tomorrow!
