Grandma's Cranberry Stuff

navel orange

sugar

walnuts,

This is the exact recipe I have used all my life, that I got from MY grandmother, & I have passed it on to my sons & MY grandkids!  Occasionally we leave out the nuts, otherwise it’s the same recipe that Ocean Spray published in its early years as the cranberry gurus!

I have been making a version of this for years and I love it! I use pecans instead of walnuts and highly recommend preparing ahead of time to allow blending of flavors. Enjoy!!!

The difference between this and my Mother-in Law's Cranberry Relish is the addition of the walnuts and she ran the cranberry's through a grinder.  The nuts make a welcome addition.

Prepared this minus the nuts and using Splenda (since I'm diabetic). Very good!

This is a GREAT recipe, but missing one ingredient an APPLE with skin on.  Using the apple you don't need to add all that sugar, maybe a couple of TBSP.  Make the day before so the flavors can meld together, if still to tart for you, just and a little more sugar.  I make the all year long not just on the holidays.  It goes Great with Turkey(of course), Chicken, Ham and other pork cuts or any meat that you'd like a sweet tart relish with,  In the summer it's great with anything grilled.  I also have the hand crank food grinder and it works great, you get that little bit of crunch and not all mush.  The longer is sits the better it gets and will last quite a while in the frig.  Sometimes when I'm craving something sweet but don't want chocolate, I'll have a spoonful or two and craving is all gone.  Enjoy!!

I use one orange seeded, one apple seeded, neither peeled and a package of washed and sorted cranberries.  I run these through a grinder and add 1/2 to 3/4 c. of sugar.  My Mother made it this way and this is how I've always prepared it for family dinners at Thanksgiving and Christmas.  It's better when you make it a full day in advance of when you plan to serve it.  Good with turkey or ham.

Nuts must be hand-chopped not put in food processor or it will ruin the whole thing. Yes an apple is good. And being a lover of spicy food I also add a chili de arbol! Good advice to adjust the sugar as a "pound" has shrunk to 12 ounces for the same price. Grrr...

This is a wonderful recipe.  I too, like my Mom did, add an apple along with the orange.  Can add nuts or not.

I grew up eating the same dish my grandmother made. My mother changed the recipe and added 1 large box of strawberry jello (according to directions on the box of jello) so it wasn't as tart. I've changed that recipe by adding black cherries and black cherry jello (in place of the strawberry jello) Use the  juice from the cherries and some water to make the cold water the directions call for. My kids still didn't like the tart taste of the cranberries so much. Now they love it. I sometimes add chopped walnuts or pecans to it. If you try either recipe I hope you enjoy it!!  Personally I still like the original the best, because I like the tart flavor of the cranberries!!  ??????????

I have made this recipe for many, many years.  My family LOVES it.  It also is great to serve with pork..

I prepared this recipe for the first time 10/25/14.  The only difference is that I purposely used 1/4 cup chopped pecans (OR walnuts).  I've learned that not everyone is keen on nuts, plus sometimes there are allergies to nuts.  I then prepared 2 packages of raspberry gelatin(3-oz.) and 2 packages of cherry gelatin (3-oz.) EACH, using 1-1/2 cups EACH boiling water to dissolve the gelatin.  I prepared them each separately, adding 1-1/4 cup undrained crushed pineapple in its own juice to the 2 different flavors and 1-1/2 cup EACH of the "Cranberry Stuff" to the gelatin mixture(s) which I poured into two separate jello molds, oiled. I thought that this would be a creative way to use this recipe as I was asked to prepare cranberry jello salad for a luncheon at our chapel!  Thank you for this recipe, Catherine Cassidy!  delowenstein

Can't get easier and sure beats the canned stuff.

I think my family would have liked this better without the walnuts.

This is a good old recipe, but wasn't adjusted for time...  Years ago the Cranberries were packed in 1 pound bags now they are in 12 ounce bags.  As the amount of cranberries has been reduced  from 1 pound to 3/4 pound, the sugar should also be reduced from 1 cup to 3/4 cup to keep it tart and not overly sweet.  It is always better with Fresh Cranberries.  Also use a hand cranked food grinder with coarse cutting plate installed and not a food processor so you do not end up with Cranberry puree.  My Grandmother, Mother and Aunts have never used nuts in their recipe nor do I.
