- 1 orange (or 2 teaspoons orange zest and 1/4 cup orange juice)
- 12 ounces fresh cranberries (thrown in raw)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
Zest the orange peel with a zester. You want to zest just until you begin to see the white under the skin and not further. You will need 2 teaspoons of zest. (Read about my variations on cranberry relish here: Cranberry Relish Variations.) Cut the orange in half and juice it. You will need 1/4 cup of orange juice.
Add the cranberries, orange juice, orange zest, and sugar to a food processor and pulse just enough to finely dice the cranberries. Be careful not to over pulse.
Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for an hour before serving for best flavors.
