• 1 tsp vegetable oil
• 1 shallot, minced
• 2 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2/3 cup water
• 1/4 cup cider vinegar
• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 12 oz (3 cups) cranberries
• 2 apples, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/4-inch pieces
• 1/3 cup minced crystallized ginger

This recipe, inspired by Indian chutneys, creates a more complexly flavored sauce than old sweet-tart cranberry sauce made with back-of-the-bag instructions. Adding vinegar, aromatics, and spices to slow-cooked cranberries and fruit yield a jammy relish with kick and flavor.

Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium heat until just shimmering. Add shallot, fresh ginger, and salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until shallot has softened, 1 to 2 minutes.

Add water, vinegar, and sugar. Increase heat to high and bring to simmer, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add 1½ cups cranberries and apples; return to simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until cranberries have almost completely broken down and mixture has thickened, about 15 minutes.

Add remaining 1½ cups cranberries and crystallized ginger; continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until just beginning to burst, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to serving bowl and cool for at least 1 hour before serving. (Sauce can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.)

• 1 lb fresh cranberries, washed and drained
• 1 large orange
• 1 lemon
• 1 can crushed pineapple, drained
• 1/2 cup toasted pecans or walnuts (optional)
• 1 cup sugar

Wash orange and lemon and cut up into small chunks (peel and all) and remove seeds. Pat crushed pineapple dry  with paper towels to remove any excess juice.  Put cranberries, orange and lemon pieces, pineapple, and nuts (if using them) into food processor. Pulse for 10-15 seconds and stop to scrape the sides. Continue to pulse and scraping the sides until all ingredients are chopped finely. Be careful not to over-process or the texture will be too mushy, the relish should maintain a course texture.

Pour relish into a medium sized mixing bowl and using a spoon stir in the sugar a ½ cup at a time. Since cranberries can vary in tartness, taste the relish after adding the first ½ cup of sugar to determine if the other half is needed. Continue to add sugar until desired sweetness is achieved. Chill in the refrigerator for 24 hours before serving.

• 8 oz fresh cranberries
• 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and coarsely chopped
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 small bunch green onions, white and light green parts thinly sliced
• cilantro (optional)

1. In bowl of a food processor pulse cranberries and jalapenos until uniformly chopped. Stop before it goes to mush.

2. Remove cranberry mixture to a bowl and add the oil, onions, and brown sugar. Also add chopped cilantro, to taste, if you are using it. You can add a little more sugar if you think it needs it, but it sweetens as it sits in the refrigerator so don't go overboard. Stir it all together and cover it with plastic wrap.

3. Let the salsa remain in the refrigerator for at least one hour. Stir it well before serving with tortilla chips or turkey.

• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• Add to boiling water
• 1 bag cranberries 
• 1/4 cup Triple Sec
• 1 tsp fresh squeezed lemon or orange juice

Boil without stirring for 5 minutes, then boil for 5 more minutes. 

• 3 1/2 cups fresh cranberries
• 1/4 cup dry red wine
• 2 tbl water
• 5 whole cloves
• 1/2 cup light honey
• 3 ripe fuyu persimmons, peeled and cut into small 1/4-inch pieces

Bring cranberries, wine, water, cloves, and honey to a simmer over medium-low heat in a large saucepan. Simmer, stirring occasionally for 10 minutes until most of the cranberries “pop” (the skins break open). Remove from the heat, remove cloves and stir in persimmons. Add more honey to taste, 2-3 tablespoons if needed. Pour into a glass bowl and serve at room temperature.
