Cranberry-Apple Relish

This relish adds vivid color to fall harvest meals, and is a nice change of pace from jellied cranberry sauces for holiday meals.Serves: 8 or more

• 12 ounces fresh cranberries
• 4 sweet apples, peeled and diced
• 1/2 cup natural granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup apple juice
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• Pinch of allspice or nutmeg
• 1/4 cup golden or dark raisins

Combine all the ingredients except the raisins in a large saucepan. Stir together; bring to a simmer, then simmer gently, covered until the cranberries have burst and the apples are tender, about 20 to 25 minutes.

Stir in the raisins and allow to cool, uncovered. Transfer to a serving container and serve at room temperature.
