📝 Preparation Steps
1
Wash the oranges and lemon well and then finely chop. If you find any seeds, remove and discard.
2
Place the fruit in a medium saucepan along with the water and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
3
Turn off the heat, cover, and let the mixture sit for ⏱️ 24 hours. (Don’t skimp on the soaking time. It is important for drawing out the pectin from the oranges, softening the rind, and mellowing the bitterness)
4
The next day, place the saucepan over medium heat and return to a simmer. Let cook, stirring occasionally, for about ⏱️ 20 minutes to an hour, until the mixture is reduced by half.
5
Add the sugar and stir until dissolved. Turn the heat up to medium-high and simmer rapidly for about 15-20 more minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning, until thick.
6
To test for doneness, place a spoonful on a cold plate and place it in the refrigerator for a minute. The marmalade should gel and hold its shape. If it seems runny, continue to cook for a few more minutes and test again until it sets.
7
Let cool completely, then refrigerate in an airtight container for up to six weeks.
