Fresh Cranberry Relish
This cranberry relish is a family recipe and a personal favorite! It’s tart and fresh, with just a hint of sweet. Served cold it’s the perfect palette cleanse and can also be frozen (think, popsicles).
This recipe is from my grandfather by marriage- Robert H. Forbes. Bob was a veteran of both WW II & the Korean Conflict, having served as a Lt. Commander in the U.S Navy-Submarine Service. Bob was my step-grandfather and had a tough exterior, yet a kind, generous heart. He loved to garden and especially enjoyed growing tomatoes!
