ooby_dooby: I've wondered about grinding up the peels too but never had the nerve. So, you're saying it's good that way? I'll have to try it, thanks.
I was once invited to a friends house for Thanksgiving dinner because they felt sorry for me since me & my girl broke up and I was alone. So I made a big batch of Cranberry relish and brought it along. There were 12-15 people seated at the table and not one person so much as tasted it. Needless to say I was devestated but secure in the knowledge that they were ignorant and missed out on a treat that they never knew existed. I think you'll agree with me.
Oooby, dont know if u will get to read this - please dont grind the whole orange peel as it will make your relish very bitter. U need to use a Zester and only take off the orange color part. Zester - little gadget u can buy in Kitchen shop.

Hi CC, the Pith (not taking the p...s out of u) is very bitter, basicly, when using the rind u are looking for the oils and flavour in the orange part of the skin to enhance the dish u are making. Happy cooking.
