Essayist Amy Bennett Williams will be at home tomorrow cooking a turkey and the trimmings….and as is her custom she’ll be infusing a bit of Southwest Florida into her cookery. Once again, here’s Amy’s recipe for Cranberry-Kumquat relish.
And here's the recipe!
Cranberry/Kumquat Relish Recipe
1 pound fresh cranberries, washed and picked over
10-12 kumquats, washed and seeded but not peeled, quartered
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and grated
Dash of salt
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons Cointreau or other intensely orange-flavored liqueur
Combine all ingredients except the 2 tablespoons of liqueur in a saucepan and simmer about 30 minutes, until the sugar is dissolved and the fruit is soft. Remove from heat and stir in the remaining liqueur. Chill before serving.
