Autumn Pear Salsasauces 1 large grapefruit; preferably pink 2 medium ripe pears 1/2 cup dried cherries/cranberries 2 tablespoon red onion; finely chopped 1/2 teaspoon garlic; finely chopped 1/2 teaspoon jalapeno pepper; finely chopped 1/2 teaspoon grated lime zest 2 tablespoon fresh lime juice When looking for grapefruits, try to find the sweet pink ones, as they complement the pears best. Serve as a condiment as you would cranberry sauce with turkey. 1. Peel the grapefruit, removing all white pith. Carefully section the fruit, then cut each section crosswise into thirds. Place in a bowl with any accumulated juices. 2. Peel and core the pears, then cut into 1/4" dice. Add at once to the grapefruit to prevent discoloration. 3. Toss with the remaining ingredients.
