In this no-fuss sauce, tart cranberries meet their match in bright ginger and fruity golden raisins. But this cranberry relish isn’t meant only for the Thanksgiving table: Try it as part of a festive breakfast on pancakes or French toast, as a holiday cheeseboard condiment, or as a sweet spread on grilled cheese sandwiches (it’s great with brie!).

What you’ll need

Ingredients

1

lb. fresh (or frozen, thawed) cranberries

1

2" piece ginger, peeled, finely grated

cups golden raisins (about 8 oz.)

¾

cup sugar

3

Tbsp. fresh orange juice

2

Tbsp. unsalted butter

½

tsp. ground allspice

Kosher salt

Preparation

  1. Cook cranberries, ginger, raisins, sugar, orange juice, butter, allspice, and a big pinch of salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally and reducing heat as needed to keep from scorching, until cranberries have burst and relish is thick and jammy, 10–12 minutes. Let cool before serving.

    Do ahead: Relish can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill.
