(Food-Beverage-News.Com, November 16, 2015 ) Taylor, MI -- Each year on November 22, cranberry lovers across the country celebrate National Cranberry Relish Day. This day is celebrated one day prior to National Eat a Cranberry Day.
Cranberry Relish is believed to have originated in the New England States during the early 1900's and has become a traditional part of today's traditional Thanksgiving dinners.
There are many different recipes and combinations that make up cranberry relish. The common ingredient, of course, is cranberries, other ingredients may include: apples, oranges, pineapple, sugar, salt, pecans, orange zest, lemon juice, horse radish sauce and brandy.
When buying fresh cranberries, avoid bags that have soft or brown berries. The best cranberries bounce. In fact, cranberries used to be called "bounceberries". Keep cranberries cool; they will keep for weeks to months in the refrigerator, and at least a year in the freezer.
Here is a recipe that's easy because there is no cooking required and simple because there are only a few ingredients. Chop or grind fresh cranberries, a green apple and an orange then add sugar to taste. The sugar will macerate the fruit releasing the juices which could be used on a biscuit or roll for a sweet cranberry treat. The sugar will also balance the dish with the tartness of the cranberries and the green apple.
