Wheat Free Cranberry Orange Relish with Ginger & Honey
Bright, bold, and bursting with citrus, this cranberry relish is the kind of condiment that steals the show at any table. The whole unpeeled orange goes straight into the food processor with the cranberries, giving the finished relish a slightly bitter, marmalade-like depth that balances beautifully against the honey and warm spice. Fresh ginger adds a lively kick that you just can't get from the jarred stuff, and a pinch of sea salt ties everything together in the best way. The food processor does the heavy lifting — just pulse until you hit that perfect coarse, textured consistency, then stir in the remaining ingredients and let the fridge do the rest. Because it's built entirely from whole fruits, honey, and spices, there's nothing hidden to worry about — no thickeners, no fillers, no grains of any kind. It's naturally free of anything wheat-derived without any substitutions required, which makes it an effortless fit for anyone navigating gluten or wheat concerns at a shared meal. Make it a day ahead and the flavors only get better.
