Sunnys Charred Orange And Cranberry Relish Recipes

COOKED CRANBERRY AND ORANGE RELISH

Steps:

• Make this a day ahead and serve chilled. In a non-reactive saucepan, combine the water, orange juice and sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring continuously. Add the cranberries and cook only for about minutes or until the skins of the berries pop. Remove pan from heat and add orange rind. Transfer mixture to a bowl and let cool to room temperature.
• Leftovers can be thinned with some liqueur and used as a hot sauce to spoon over frozen yogurt or pound cake.

SUNNY 'S CRANBERRY MOJITO PITCHER

Steps:

• Combine the cranberry juice, agave and mint in a medium saucepan over medium heat just until it comes to a boil. Whisk to combine, then cover and steep until the cranberry juice tastes like mint, 3 to 5 minutes. If not sweet enough for your liking, add a bit more syrup. Strain out the mint and pour the liquid into a pitcher.
• Stir the rum and lime juice into the pitcher and refrigerate until cold.
• To serve, add 3 to 4 mint leaves, a few cranberries and ice to lowball or wine glasses. Pour in the chilled drink, then top off with a splash of sparkling water or ginger ale. Enjoy!

APPLE-ORANGE-CRANBERRY RELISH

Steps:

• Grate the zest from the whole orange and set aside. Cut off any remaining pith from the orange. Cut the orange into chunks. Peel the apple and remove the core; cut into large pieces.
• In a food processor, combine the orange zest and chunks, apples, cranberries and celery and process until finely chopped; be careful not to process too long because the mixture will become mushy. Add the walnuts and pulse until chopped. Stir in the sugar and orange liqueur. Refrigerate until serving time, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.

CHERRY-LEMON RELISH

Steps:

• Combine the zest of 2 lemons (in wide strips), 1 cup water, 1/2 cup sugar and 1 cinnamon stick in a pot over medium heat; bring to a simmer and cook until the zest is slightly translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Strain; reserve the lemon zest and syrup and discard the cinnamon stick. Put the lemon zest in a food processor; add 1 1/2 pounds frozen cherries (thawed and drained) and a pinch of salt. Pulse, adding 1/4 to 1/2 cup of the sugar syrup to loosen. Add 1 to 2 teaspoons lemon juice.
