When my husband and I were married on November 30, 1991, we spent part of our honeymoon in Williamsburg, VA. Its a magical place, especially during the holiday season. We were really drawn to the holiday decorations made of apples, pineapples, and magnolia leaves. AND we fell in love with some of the traditional foods served in Williamsburg during the holiday season. So from our house to yours, here’s a recipe we’ve been making every Thanksgiving holiday since then. Enjoy!
Cranberry Orange Relish
2 cups cranberries
1 orange, quartered and seeded
1/2 lemon, seeded (I often just use lemon juice instead)
1 cup sugar (or sugar substitute)
1 cup pecans
Chop the cranberries, orange, and lemon in a food processor.
Add the sugar and pecans. Process briefly.
Cover and let stand at room temperature for 12 hours.
Refrigerate overnight.
Here’s my addition:
Serve in a glass turkey bowl. My turkey server came from Williams-Sonoma.
