ksmithI received a postcard the other day from the Subaru dealer. I thought it was another plea for me to trade in Kuro, but it turned out to be a Happy Holidays card complete with a recipe for a Cranberry Pear relish. Now, I *love* pears, and store-bought cranberry relishes always disappoint me. So, I decided to take the plunge and give this a try.
4c (about 1 lb) cranberries (picked over, whatever that means),
2 cups sugar,
1 cup orange juice,
1 tbsp orange zest, and
2 Anjou or Bosc pears (slightly under ripe, peeled, and diced).
(If I had some Grand Marnier or Cointreau in the house, I'd add a splash, but that's just me)
Combine it all in a heavy saucepan, place over medium heat , and boil until
the berries pop open (10-15 minutes). Skim the foam (with a metal spoon)
and let it cool. It's supposed to keep for 2 months in the fridge.
