This is my mom's homemade marmalade. It tastes great with toasts for breakfast or on crackers for a quick snack. Ingredients:
1 grapefruit with peel on, sliced in fine fine strips |
2 oranges with peel on, sliced in fine strips |
1 lemon with peel on, sliced in fine strips |
1 lime with peel on, sliced in fine strips |
1 1/2 lb white sugar |
cold water |
Directions:
1. Place all the cut-up citrus fruits in a large bowl with a lid. Estimate the volume of fruits and add three times the volume of water (1 volume of fruits for 3 volumes of water) and add the water to the cut-up fruits. Let this soak at least 4 hours or overnight.
2. Then, put it all in a large saucepan and cook slowly on medium heat on the stove top for 2 1/2 hours, strirring frequently.
3. Once cooked, ladle into sterilized mason jars (it will also keep a long time in the fridge).
4. If you double the recipe, double the citrus fruits but only use a maximum of 2 lbs of sugar. Doubling the recipe yields 13 jars (8.5 oz or 250 ml)
