Tips for the Best Cranberry Relish
- Difference: This is called a relish because it uses fresh cranberries and fresh ingredients. Cranberry sauce is cooked.
- Pick your Cranberries: Wash and pick through your cranberries and take out any bad ones. You can do this easily by putting them in a bowl of water. The good cranberries will float, any bad ones will sink. Just skim off the top and through the bad ones out.
- Make A-Head: This is a great recipe to make ahead, up to 3 days in advance actually. I recommend allowing the relish to sit in the fridge for at least an hour or more to let the sugar break down the bitterness of the cranberries. And let the flavors meld together.
- Customize: Make this to your liking. Add pear or pineapple instead of apple, cinnamon or ginger for extra spice. For extra crunch add in celery or more nuts.
- Fridge: You can keep this relish in an air tight container for up to 2 weeks.
- Freezer: It can also be frozen for up to 2 months. Let thaw in the fridge before use.
Uses for Homemade Relish
Besides eating it straight from the jar, there are lots of uses for this cranberry relish.

- Dip: Pour over cream cheese and serve with crackers or chips.
- Brie: Serve over baked brie
- Dessert: Serve on top of cake, ice cream, or cheese cake. Divine!
- Top it: This is yummy as a topping for waffles, pancakes, yogurt or toast.
- Spread it: Use instead of mayo on your next sandwich.
