Old-fashioned Orange Marmalade Recipe

Old-Fashioned Orange Marmalade

From deliathecrone 16 years ago

The natural gelatin of navel (Seville) oranges make this the easiest preserve to attempt at home, for a first try.

Remove all white membranes from peeled oranges and slice thin.
Slice unpeeled lemon.
Cover oranges and lemon with water.
Let stand in refrigerator for 24 hours.
Boil for 3 hours, add sugar and boil 1 more hour.
Put into sterile jars and seal.
Makes 4 pints.
You can add some very finely chopped orange rind, but beware - it does cook tough, without very long boiling.
