CRANBERRY FRUIT RELISH
This fruity relish requires no cooking - all you need is a blender! Cranberries, oranges, apples, and pineapple (plus some ginger and nutmeg to jazz it up) make this a great change of pace from the usual cranberry sauce. The recipe is from Taste of Home's 2005 Holiday Recipe collection. I haven't tried it yet, but when I make it, I'm going to reduce the sugar. Cook time is chill time.

Tips:
- Choose fresh cranberries: Look for plump, deep-red cranberries without any bruises or blemishes.
- Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you cut the cranberries evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
- Don't overcook the cranberries: Overcooked cranberries will become soft and mushy. Cook them just until they begin to burst.
- Add sugar to taste: The amount of sugar you add to the relish is a matter of personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
- Use a variety of spices: Different spices can be used to add flavor to the relish. Some popular choices include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
- Make the relish ahead of time: The relish can be made up to two weeks ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. This makes it a great option for holiday entertaining.

Cranberry relish is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed with a variety of dishes. It is a popular side dish for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner, but it can also be used to add flavor to sandwiches, salads, and even desserts. With its bright red color and tart flavor, cranberry relish is a surefire way to add a festive touch to any meal.
