Fresh Ginger Relish Recipes

Steps:

• Cut unpeeled orange and lemon into wedges; remove any seeds. Transfer orange and lemon to a food processor; add remaining ingredients. Pulse until chopped. Transfer to a bowl; refrigerate, covered, overnight.

Steps:

• Grate the cucumbers and onions into a large bowl using the large holes of a box grater. Sprinkle the pickling salt over the top. Cover tightly, and allow to rest at room temperature overnight.
• Squeeze as much liquid as possible out of the cucumber mixture; set aside. Whisk together the sugar, flour, turmeric, ginger, and celery seed. Heat the vinegar and water in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Whisk in the sugar mixture until smooth. Stir in the cucumber mixture. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the relish into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process pint jars for 10 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, heat oil over medium. Add shallots and ginger, season with salt and pepper, and cook until softened, 3 minutes. Add plums, sugar, and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a simmer and cook until plums have softened (add 1/4 cup water if needed), about 12 minutes. Stir in vinegar and zest. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Combine ginger, sweet pepper, vinegar, orange juice, brown sugar and salt in a medium mixing bowl.
• Cover and chill before serving, if desired.
• Serv with grilled or roasted meats or in place of pickle relish.
• Refrigerate any remaining ginger relish for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• In a food processor chop fine the gingerroot and the orange, add the cranberries, and pulse the motor until the berries are chopped fine. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and stir in the sugar. Chill the relish, covered, for at least 30 minutes. The relish keeps, covered and chilled, for 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Using a large, sharp knife, dice the dates and crystallized ginger into small, uniform dice. Thinly slice the scallions and then mince them finely.
• Put the cranberries in the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times until they are in rough pieces. Add the honey, lime juice, jalapeño, cilantro, fresh ginger, salt, and pepper and continue to pulse until finely diced. Add the dates, crystalized ginger, and scallions and pulse once or twice to combine.
• Refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to blend thoroughly. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Place all ingredient except the raisins into a heavy saucepan. Simmer, stirring often, until most of the liquid has evaporated and sauce is thick and syrupy--about 45 minutes.
• Stir in the raisins and cook for another 5-10 minutes until plump. Note that chutney will thicken as it cools (it will become the consistency of strawberry jam once it cools).
• Pour into clean jars, cover and refrigerate for up to three weeks. Alternatively, freeze or pour into sterile jars and seal---keeps up to one year.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring cranberries, sugar, ginger, and 2 tablespoons water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until most of the cranberries have popped, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in vinegar.
• Remove relish from heat. Let cool to room temperature, and serve.
