Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound oranges (about 4 medium)
1 cup water
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Slice the oranges thinly, approximately 1/8 inch thick, picking out the seeds as you go. A mandolin makes this process move quickly.
  • Place the orange sliced in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  • Stir in the water, sugar and vanilla.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then turn the heat to low.
  • Continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture has darkened in color and thickened to a jammy consistency. The process will take approximately 35-40 minutes and the temperature will read 222-223 F on a candy thermometer.
  • Carefully transfer the marmalade to canning jars and seal with the lid.
  • Marmalade can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 10 days in an airtight container.

Time 25m

Yield 1 jar

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 medium navel orange
2 tablespoons water
1/2 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Select Navel oranges that have the thinnest peel.
  • If the orange is large double the amount of water and sugar.
  • Wash the orange thoroughly.
  • Cut off both ends of the orange.
  • Cut the orange in half, cut each half in about eight sections.
  • Place the orange sections in the food processor and pulse until the peel in is tiny pieces.
  • In a medium saucepan place the processed orange, the water and the sugar and bring to a gentle boil.
  • Boil for 15 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Let cool, then place in a glass jar with a tight fitting lid.
  • Refrigerate to store.
  • When it is cold it is ready to eat.
  • I use 1/2 sugar and 1/2 Splenda and it works well.

Tips:

  • Choose the right oranges: Seville oranges are the traditional choice for marmalade, as they have a high pectin content, which helps the marmalade to set. However, you can also use other varieties of oranges, such as navel oranges or Valencia oranges. Just be sure to choose oranges that are ripe and free of blemishes.
  • Prepare your oranges properly: Before you start making marmalade, you need to prepare your oranges. This involves washing them thoroughly, then cutting them in half and removing the seeds. You can also peel the oranges if you prefer, but this is not necessary.
  • Use a large pot: Marmalade can splatter when it is cooking, so it is important to use a large pot that is at least 8 quarts in size. This will give the marmalade plenty of room to bubble and expand.
  • Stir the marmalade frequently: As the marmalade is cooking, you need to stir it frequently to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
  • Test the marmalade for doneness: To test the marmalade for doneness, you can spoon a small amount onto a chilled plate. If the marmalade wrinkles when you push your finger through it, it is done.

Conclusion:

Orange marmalade is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed on toast, scones, or pancakes. It can also be used as a filling for pies and tarts, or as a glaze for ham or chicken. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make your own delicious orange marmalade at home.
