Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz fresh cranberries
  • 1 small bunch green onions, sliced
  • 12 jalapeños, seeded and minced
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
  • 3/4 to 1 cup sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • For Serving: Crackers or sliced baguette

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Cranberries

Rinse and drain your fresh cranberries, then chop them in a food processor. Be careful not to over-process; you want a coarse texture, not a puree.

Step 2: Mix the Ingredients

Combine the chopped cranberries in a bowl with sliced green onions, minced jalapeños, and chopped cilantro.

Step 3: Season the Mixture

Sprinkle in the sugar to taste, add lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Stir everything together until well combined.

Step 4: Chill the Dip

Transfer your mixture to an airtight container, let it chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours, or overnight for the best flavor.

Step 5: Serve the Dip

When ready to serve, give it a quick stir and pair with your favorite crackers or sliced baguette for an irresistible appetizer!

Notes

Note 1: Adjusting Sugar

The amount of sugar can be adjusted based on your preferred sweetness level; taste the mixture before chilling to see if it meets your liking.

Note 2: Jalapeño Heat

For a milder dip, use only one jalapeño and ensure to remove the seeds, as they contain much of the heat.

Note 3: Chill Time

Allowing the dip to chill for an extended period, such as overnight, will enhance the flavors even more.
