I love all types of relish. I'm on the lookout for fresh cranberries. It's time for cranberry pear relish.
My favorite restaurant {the Glen Iris Inn} used to serve this and I have missed it. What a fun surprise to now have a recipe for it.
Looks delicious…especially on one of those "SCOOPS" 🙂
That's the recipe we use. I didn't have time to get any canned yet, since we had so many tomatoes this season. I'm still pulling out my garden, ha ha! The relish is good mixed into green beans too. Or mashed potatoes.
It looks pretty tasty
