How to Make Marmalade
I’d always been wary of marmalade, mostly because I just couldn’t wrap my head around it. To me, it was just jelly with a bunch of stuff in the way.

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Place a small plate or glass dish in the freezer. You will use this later to test the viscosity of the marmalade.
2
Thoroughly wash the oranges and lemon. Thinly slice oranges and lemon, removing seeds as you go. Stack the slices and quarter them. In a large non-reactive pot, combine citrus slices and water. Place the pot over high heat and bring to a boil. Once it comes to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for ⏱️ 30 minutes. Uncover and let simmer an additional ⏱️ 15 minutes or until citrus is very soft, stirring occasionally.

Raise heat and mixture to a boil. Add sugar to citrus mixture and mix until well combined. Let boil until mixture reaches 223ºF on a candy thermometer, about ⏱️ 30 minutes. Keep a close eye on the marmalade. The mixture should darken in color. Test the doneness of the marmalade by placing a small amount of the marmalade on the chilled plate and letting it sit for ⏱️ 30 second. The mixture should turn into a soft gel and move slightly. If it is runny and thin, let it continue to boil until it reaches desired consistency.

The marmalade is now ready for canning.
