Lilja told me it's a very easy dish that's made by blending cranberries, oranges, and sugar. It's something they serve on their Thanksgiving dinner table every year, instead of the traditional cranberry sauce. Apples, cranberries, and crystallized ginger make a delicious sweet-tart combo for holiday dinners, sandwiches, or adding to Apricot/Cranberry Chutney.
To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook cranberry apricot relish with ginger & orange zest using 9 ingredients and 5 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Cranberry Apricot Relish with Ginger & Orange Zest:
- Prepare 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- Make ready 1/4 cup minced shallots (onions will do in a pinch, but shallots are way better for this purpose)
- Take 1 Tablespoon finely minced fresh ginger root (or 1/2 teaspoons ginger powder)
- Prepare 1 (12 oz.) package fresh cranberries
- Make ready 1 orange, zested first then juiced (you can use Navel, Valencia, or Blood orange)
- Get 1 cup sugar
- Make ready 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- Take water to make up the difference between orange juice squeezed and 3/4 cups liquid
- Prepare 12 dried apricots, cut into roughly 1/4" pieces
Fresh cranberries ground up with apples and orange. Will apples alone balance the flavors? I'm also thinking about using candied/crystallized ginger. Place syrup, cranberries, sugar and ginger in medium saucepan and bring to boil.
Steps to make Cranberry Apricot Relish with Ginger & Orange Zest:
- In a large saucepan or deep saute pan, saute the shallots and ginger in the oil over medium heat until the shallots are translucent.
- Add the cranberries, sugar, liquid (all the juice from the orange plus the water), and salt and turn the heat up to medium high.
- Bring the relish to a gentle boil and keep it at a boil for 3 or 4 minutes while the cranberries pop, stirring occasionally. Pop any unpopped cranberries by pressing them against the sides of the pot with the back of a spatula, stir them back into the relish and let the relish reduce another 2 to 3 minutes over medium high heat, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the relish from the heat and cool for 10 to 15 minutes before stirring in the orange zest and dried apricot pieces.
- Enjoy! :)
