Ingredients:
- 2 cups fresh cranberries
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup white vinegar
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
-
Rinse the cranberries and remove any stems or debris. Drain them thoroughly.
-
In a saucepan, combine the sugar, vinegar, water, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, ground allspice, ground ginger, and salt. Stir well to combine.
-
Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. This will create a sweet and tangy syrup.
-
Add the cranberries to the saucepan and stir to coat them with the syrup.
-
Cook the cranberries over medium heat for about 10-15 minutes, or until they start to pop and become tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
-
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the cranberry pickle to cool to room temperature. As it cools, the mixture will thicken.
-
Once the cranberry pickle has cooled, transfer it to a clean, airtight jar or container.
-
Refrigerate the cranberry pickle for a few hours or overnight to allow the flavors to meld and develop.
-
Serve the cranberry pickle as a delightful condiment alongside various dishes. It pairs well with roast meats, sandwiches, cheese platters, and more.
