Weekend marmalade making

Posted by kathryn in Shopping Basket

Look what I’ve been doing over the long weekend!

Marmalade making is not part of my usual cooking routine, in fact it’s been at least three years since I last made some. However it was a cold and windy long weekend. Plus I’d recently acquired kaffir limes from one friend, a huuuuuge bag of oranges from another and some lemons from my parents. All of which equalled marmalade.

So I now have four jars of intensely (and wonderfully) sharp kaffir lime marmalade, as well as eleven jars of orange marmalade.I used a hybrid of recipes from several sources including Stephanie Alexander’s Cook’s Companion and Tessa Kiros’ Falling Cloudberries, along with general stuff I knew from previous marmalade-making experiences.

For a good introduction to marmalade go to Delia Smith.
