Notes
- This recipe works best with fresh cranberries. Frozen cranberries will not have the same texture, and can release excess water into the salsa.
- The recipe calls for jalapeno with the seeds and ribs removed, which makes for a mild salsa. If you prefer a spicy salsa, leave some of the pepper seeds and ribs in.
