Making and Canning Marmalade
Citrus marmalades are best cooked over a period of several days to soften the outer skin,
rind or peel. This recipe takes three days, but its an easy process. Common marmalades
are orange, lemon, lime, grapefruit or our favorite tangerine marmalade. Any of
these may be used or mixed together using the same recipe.
Note that you should only use organic fruit for marmalade, with no pesticides. Any
pesticides used in inorganic fruits would have settled within the skin, peel or rind and
would be cooked and sealed into your canned goods, making a less than wholesome,
and perhaps toxic, product.
