Cranberry almond relish

1 batch

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
12 ounces Cranberries
8 Fluid ounces water
8 Fluid ounces wine vinegar
1½ teaspoon Allspice
1½ teaspoon Freshly ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon Salt
12 ounces Sugar
Juice of 1 large orange
½ cup Chopped, blanched almonds

Directions

Put the cranberries in a saucepan with the water and vinegar. Bring to a boil and simmer until the berries pop. Mash them on the side of the pan with a wooden spoon. Stir in the sugar and spices, salt and orange juice. Boil slowly, stirring once in a while until the mixture has thickened. It will take about 30-40 minutes. Add the almonds during the last few minutes of cooking and stir them in well. Pour into clean, warm jars and cover with plastic-lined lids.

Note: The authors say that this is good with turkey, chicken, duck, other game birds, and ham and can be made with fresh or frozen cranberries.
