Pescatarian Cranberry-Orange Relish
Bright, tangy, and just sweet enough, this cranberry-orange relish is the kind of condiment that makes everything on the table taste more intentional. Fresh cranberries simmer down with squeezed orange juice, maple syrup, and warm spices until they burst into a glossy, loose jam that smells absolutely incredible. Ceylon cinnamon and ground ginger give it a gentle warmth without overpowering the fruit, while a touch of sea salt pulls the whole thing together. Stirring in the orange zest at the very end keeps that citrus brightness alive and fragrant. It works beautifully alongside roasted vegetables, grain dishes, or anything that could use a pop of sweet-tart flavor on the plate. The relish thickens as it cools, so what looks a little loose in the pan sets up perfectly by the time you're ready to serve. Make a jar ahead of time and you'll find yourself reaching for it all week long.
