PREP TIME:  minutes
TOTAL TIME:  minutes

Serves:

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups whole raw cranberries, washed

  • 1 small onion

  • 3/4 cup sour cream

  • 1/2 cup sugar

  • 2 tablespoons horseradish from a jar (“red is a bit milder than white”)

DIRECTIONS

  1. Grind the raw berries and onion together. (“I use an old-fashioned meat grinder,” says Stamberg. “I’m sure there’s a setting on the food processor that will give you a chunky grind — not a puree.”)
  2. Add everything else and mix.
  3. Put in a plastic container and freeze.
  4. Early next morning, move it from freezer to refrigerator compartment to thaw. (“It should still have some little icy slivers left.”)
  5. The relish will be thick, creamy, and shocking pink.
