A perfect addition to cakes, teas, and desserts. The tempting scent and taste of oranges captured in your homemade pantry.
Ingredients
- Oranges – 8 pieces
- 2:1 gelling sugar – 500 g
Preparation
- Scald and dry 5 oranges. Thinly peel the skin with a peeler to obtain fine strips. Peel 2 oranges thickly enough to remove the white pith inside, and collect the juice. Cut out the pulp from the membranes and halve them. Squeeze the remaining fruits and measure 700 ml of the collected juice.
- In a tall pot, mix the juice, peel, orange fillets, and gelling sugar. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, then cook for 3 minutes, stirring continuously. Immediately pour the marmalade into sterilized, hot-water-rinsed, clean jars, ensuring each jar contains a similar amount of orange fillets and peel. Seal the jars tightly and let them cool.
