Cranberry-Cherry Relish

Contributed By: EatingWell
Recipe by: Judy M. Woods, Photo by: Ken Burris

Dark cherries may be unusual in a traditional cranberry relish, but they are an interesting and worthwhile addition. They give the relish a beautiful ruby hue and complex taste; pears provide a delicate balance to the assertive red fruits.

Ingredients

1 12 oz Package fresh or frozen cranberries ( 3 cups)
1 10 oz Package frozen sweet cherries (2 cups)
2 Firm pears, such as Bosc or Anjou, peeled and cubed
3/4 cup Packed brown sugar
 Pinch of ground nutmeg
 Pinch of ground cinnamon

Preparation

Combine all ingredients in a large heavy saucepan and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring often to prevent sticking. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the fruit is tender and the relish has thickened, 40 to 50 minutes. Let cool.

Cook's Notes

The relish will keep, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
