Follow numbered steps for authentic taste and perfectionPreheat oven to 350°F.
Toast mustard seeds in a dry small saucepan over medium-low heat, rolling around in pan often, until seeds start to pop, about 3 minutes.
Remove from heat and add shallot, chile, currants, maple syrup, vinegar, allspice, and 1/2 tsp. salt (mixture will sputter a bit).
Stir well to dissolve salt.
Let sit until currants are plumped and mixture is cool, 15–20 minutes.
Meanwhile, toast walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet, tossing halfway through, until golden brown, 8–10 minutes.
Pulse walnuts and cranberries in a food processor until very coarsely chopped but with a few whole cranberries in the mix, about 5 short pulses.
Transfer to a large bowl and work in shallot mixture.
Cover and let sit at least 30 minutes.
Just before serving, taste and season relish with more salt; stir in parsley.
Relish (without parsley) can be made 4 days ahead.
