Apple Orange Marmalade Recipes

APPLE GINGER ORANGE MARMALADE RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut off the tops and bottoms of the oranges, and then cut each orange into quarters. Using a sharp knife, cut the fruit from the rind and pith. Then, working over the pot you'll be using to cook the marmalade, separate the fruit into segments. Use your fingers to gently peel each segment from its surrounding membrane so that you are left with only the fruit. Squeeze the membrane over the pot in order to collect any juices before discarding. In a separate sauce pan, cover the peel with cold water and bring to a boil over medium-low heat. Boil for 10 minutes. Drain and cover with cold water again, and return to a boil for another 10 minutes or until the peel is softened. Drain. Using a spoon or knife, scrape the pith from the peel. Slice the peel into very thin strips. Finely chop the apples. Add them to the pot with the oranges and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, until the apples and water mostly break down (there will still be some apple chunks left). Prepare your canning supplies. Bring the temperature of the glass jars up by processing them in hot water for several minutes, and heat a few cups of water in a small saucepan for the lids. Add in the sliced orange peel, the ground ginger, and the crystallized ginger. Add the sugar last, maintaining the boil. Boil hard, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches the gel stage, about 25 minutes. When you reach the gel stage, ladle the hot marmalade into the hot jars, leaving 1/4″ headspace. Place the lids and bands on top, screwing on the bands just until fingertip-tight. Place the full jars back into the boiling water and process 10 minutes. Remove from the water and place the jars on a towel. Let the jars cool. The seals should suck down.

APPLE ORANGE MARMALADE

Steps:

• Fill a boiling water bath canner with water. Add 7 half-pint canning jars to the water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and keep the water simmering while you prepare the fruit.
• Put the lids in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Do not boil. Keep the lids hot while you prepare the fruit.
• Wash, peel, quarter, and core the apples. Slice the apples thinly; measure 8 cups (2 quarts).
• Quarter the orange, remove the seeds, and slice very thinly.
• Heat the 1 1/2 cups of water and sugar until the sugar has dissolved. Add the lemon juice and fruit.
• Boil the fruit and syrup mixture rapidly, stirring constantly, to 9 F above the boiling point of water at your altitude, or about 221 F to 222 F at normal altitude. or until the mixture thickens. If you don't have a candy or jelly thermometer, see the test methods below.
• Remove from heat; skim off foam.
• Pour immediately into the hot, sterile canning jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Wipe the rims and threads with a clean damp cloth or paper towels and position the lids. Screw the rings on to fingertip tightness. Do not overtighten.
• Put the filled jars in the canner. If the water does is not at least 1 inch above the jar tops, add hot water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to a gently boil. Process for 5 minutes after the water comes to a boil. (10 minutes for altitudes from 1,001 to 6,000 feet, 15 minutes for an altitude above 6,000 feet) Expert Tips Testing for the Jelly Point Two ways to test for jelling if you don't have access to a reliable thermometer are sheeting and the cold plate method. For the sheeting method, dip a cool metal spoon into the boiling marmalade. Raise it out of the mixture and hold it over the pan. Turn the spoon so the mixture will run out. If the marmalade forms drops that combine to form a sheet that hangs off the spoon, it is done. For the cold plate method, place a few small plates in the freezer. When you think the marmalade might be done, take a plate out of the freezer. Drop a teaspoon of hot marmalade on the cold plate. Let it stand for about 30 seconds and then tip the plate to the side. If it's done, the marmalade will move only slightly. See Also Preparing Jars for Canning and Boiling Water Processing You Might Also Like Cranberry Chutney Recipe With Apples and Oranges

PINEAPPLE-APPLE MARMALADE JAM

Steps:

• Combine pineapple, apple, sugar, orange juice, and lemon zest in a pot. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring frequently, until pineapple turns translucent, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Place a few small plates in the freezer.
• Inspect 2 or 3 small Mason jars for cracks, discarding any defective ones. Sterilize jars in a pot of boiling water for 10 minutes and leave in hot water until ready for use. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
• Add a tablespoon of marmalade to a frozen plate. Freeze for 1 minute, remove, and nudge marmalade with your finger. If the mixture stays nudged, it is ready to be canned. If it slides back, continue cooking and check for readiness every minute.
• Pack marmalade into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/2 to 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and let rest, several inches apart, for 12 to 24 hours. Press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area.
