Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Wash and pick over cranberries for foreign pieces. In heavy saucepan combine berries with sugar, ½ cup water and the orange juice. Bring to boil; reduce heat and cook at gentle boil until cranberries have popped. Do not wait until all pop, as the cranberries will become too soft.

  2. Step 2

    Remove from heat; stir in Grand Marnier; cover well and chill.

  3. Step 3

    A couple of hours before serving, stir in pecans.

Tip
  • Relish can be made a week ahead of time and refrigerated.

I've been making this relish for years. I had to visit the website because the long, skinny brown recipe I cut from the paper had finally disintegrated! I cut the sugar down a bit, by 1/4 cup, and it never disappoints.

I think this must have been what my Nana always served on Thanksgiving. What as a kid I thought was “juicy” was actually boozy?! Well, even if it wasn’t, this hit the craving precisely.

1 pound = 1 bag change to 1 cup sugar 4 tablespoons Cointreau grated orange rind

forgot to add it wasn’t cooked, more like a relish with orange rind/zest. since I live in the SW a bit of fresh cilantro wouldn’t be out of place either.
