Ahron,


Wow. Surely, would love to prepare some orange mermalade. Looks so simple .. I had done it many years ago when the gals were mere toddlers. Le Cordón Institute ... one of my projects ...

My French Mom and Italian Grandmother used prepare cherry mermalade and or blueberry, lemon and orange ...

Canary Island Pineapple would certainly be interesting too ...

I look forward to seeing your finished preserves.

Thanks alot for posting.

Margaux.

I adore marmalade. Thumbs Up
Here we make it with grapefruit because they are abundant and usually free...
You have pricked my conscience Ahron...
I was going to be lazy this year and not bother, but I will now. I hate seeing fruit get wasted.

As a note; I use it to glaze a baked ham

Anne,

Ruby grapefruit sounds lovely too ...

And glazes for roast ham or roast duck surely sound wonderful.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Margaux.

Ahron,

Amazing. Now, this gorgeous marmalade would work wonderfully in Arepas with your home made mozzarella di latte ( cow variety ) or ricotta fresh cheese !!!


Have wonderful week,
Margaux.

Yum!
Well done Ahron.

You should enter a jar in your local Agricultural and Pastoral competition.

Around here Marmalade is fiercely contested at the A & P show, and *CWI. You might loose points for the size of your peel, but it is purely an aesthetic dispute. My mother-in-law is of the smaller-the-better school, I am on your side, long pieces of peel finely sliced, but Ma is a judge Wink so I go with minced peel to keep her son happy. LOL

*CWI = Country Women's Institute
