CITRUS MARMALADE
It's decidedly more involved than your average preserves, but homemade marmalade is worth the effort. High amounts of natural pectin, acid and bitterness make citrus fruits (namely oranges, lemons and grapefruits) ideal for preserving. And there are many paths to a satisfying result: Some recipes call for boiling the whole fruit until it's tender, then slicing it before simmering it again in a sugar syrup for a very thick, nearly opaque marmalade. Others use only the peel and juice, discarding the insides for a crystal-clear result. Our recipe takes a third tack, using the whole fruit, separated with some savvy knife skills for a marmalade that lands somewhere between the other two. Perhaps the best part of making your own marmalade is the ability to control the texture of your final product. Do you prefer a thick-cut marmalade? Or one with a more uniform, delicate texture? No matter your answer, be sure to soak the sliced peels for at least eight hours to allow them to fully soften, or else they might become tough - more candied peel than evenly cooked preserves.

Steps:
- Cut the citrus: Using a sharp knife, slice off the top and bottom of the citrus so it sits sturdily on the cutting board. Slice off the peel and white pith in sections, starting at the top and following the curve of the fruit. (You should have a pile of peels and a few naked fruit.)
- Thinly slice the peels (with the pith) no thinner than 1/8 inch and no thicker than 1/4 inch, place them in a large bowl and set aside.
- Halve the fruit and remove any visible seeds. Thinly slice about 1/4-inch thick (white membrane and all), removing any seeds you might have missed. Add the fruit to the peels, and cover with 3 to 5 cups of water, taking note of how much water you used. Let this sit for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours in the refrigerator. (This will help extract the pectin slowly as well as soften the peels.)
- Make the marmalade: Place a small plate in the refrigerator to chill. (You'll use this later.)
- Place the peels, fruit and water in a large pot. Add enough water to bring the total to 6 cups and bring to a strong simmer over medium-high heat.
- Cook the citrus until the peels have begun to soften and turn translucent, and the liquid has reduced by about three-fourths, 40 to 50 minutes.
- Add sugar and any add-ins and continue to cook, stirring occasionally at first, then more frequently as the marmalade cooks and the juices thicken. Continue until most of the liquid has evaporated and the peels are totally softened and almost completely translucent, another 40 to 50 minutes.
- As the marmalade cooks, the liquid reduces, the sugars thicken and the natural pectins activate. You'll notice the liquid go from a rapid, rolling boil with smaller bubbles to a slow, thick, tarlike boil with larger bubbles: This is the stage at which it's most important to stir constantly along the bottom of the pot to prevent scorching and sticking. (Sugar is heavier than water and will concentrate at the bottom of the pot, making the fruit more likely to burn.) It's also the stage at which splattering may occur, so take care in stirring.
- When the marmalade reaches this point, add lemon juice and continue to cook, stirring constantly until the jam has returned to its previously thickened state, about another 5 minutes. At this stage, the mixture should look thick and viscous with bits of the peel floating around. The peels will never break into the liquid as with a jam: This is O.K.
- To test the jam's thickness, spoon a bit onto the chilled plate, return it to the refrigerator and chill for 2 minutes. Drag your finger through it: It should hold its shape on either side without appearing watery or runny. If it's not there yet, cook it for a few more minutes.
- Remove from heat and discard the vanilla bean, if used. Divide among jars, leaving 1/4 inch of space at the top, and seal immediately. Can the marmalade (our How to Make Jam guide has detailed instruction), or store in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Chill a saucer in the freezer, ready for checking the setting point of your jam. Wash the lemons and remove the top 'button' which would have been attached to the stalk. Put the lemons in a large saucepan with 2.5 litres water. Bring to the boil, then cover the pan and simmer for 2½ hrs or until the lemon skins are lovely and tender, and can be pierced easily with a fork.
- When the lemons are cool enough to handle, remove from the saucepan. Measure the cooking liquid - you'll need 1.5 litres in total. If you don't quite have this, make up the difference with water. If you have too much liquid, bring to the boil and reduce to the required amount.
- Halve the lemons and remove the pips - reserving the pips and any lemon juice that oozes out during the process. Cut the lemon peel and flesh into strips, as thick or thin as you like. Put all of this, including any juices, back into the pan. Put the pips in a small piece of muslin and tie up with string. Add this to the pan, as the pips will aid the setting process of the jam.
- Add the sugar and bring to the boil, stirring until it has completely dissolved. Boil rapidly for about 20 mins until setting point is reached. Test the setting point by dropping a little marmalade onto the chilled saucer, allowing it to cool for 1 min, then pushing gently with your finger. If the marmalade crinkles, the setting point is reached; if not, continue to boil and check again in a few mins.
- Leave to cool for 10-15 mins (this will prevent the lemon shreds sinking to the bottoms of the jars), remove the muslin bag, then gently stir in one direction to disperse any scum (small air bubbles on the surface). Pour jam into warm sterilised jars and seal straight away.

LEMON - CLEMENTINE MARMALADE
This is based on a really old recipe one of my Grandmother's friends used to use. I was never a fan of marmalade as a kid until I tried hers, and I wrote her 'reciept' down and kept it. I've messed with it a bit since then, and while I prefer the product which I get when I use Myer Lemons from my little potted tree on my back deck, this is almost as good using Eurekas or Ponderosas from the supermarket. Make sure you've got a candy thermometer around to use! I've found that the apple skin helps set the marmalade better; you can make it without the skin, but it will be a very loose, soft-set product.

Steps:
- Scrub the lemons, remove any stems or blemishes. cut each in quarters on the long axis, then slice them very thinly (I use a japanese mandolin set on thin) and remove and reserve the pips.
- Scrub the clementines, cut the same way as the lemons. Save the pips in the same manner.
- Using cheesecloth, make a loose bundle of the lemon and clementine seeds, tie it with string and leave a long leash so you can tie it off to your pan handle.
- Set the shaved citrus in a pan, cover with the water, and set the bag of seeds into it. Let is set at room temperature, covered, overnight.
- 8 hours later, pour the citrus and water into your large heavy pan, add the bundle of seeds and tie it off to the pan handle. Add the apple peel and turn the heat on under it to medium and let it come up to a simmer.
- Once it's slowly boiling, add the sugars and the brandy. let it continue to cook for about an hour, then set the thermometer in and turn the heat up slightly and start watching the temperature. Stir constantly, and skim foam which develops on the top.
- have 8 8-ounce jars and maybe a couple of 4-oz jars sanitized and ready. I wash mine, then set them on a tray in a 250 oven so they are ready when I am.
- Once the thermometer reads 215 F, add the vanilla extract* and butter, and fish out and discard the apple peel and bag of pips. Continue to cook and stir until it hits 220, then ladle into prepared hot jars, lid up, and process for 10 minutes.
- This is a medium-set marmalade, with no graininess and a good balance of flavor with less bitterness if you use Meyers than if you use commercially shipped lemons.
- * I make my own vanilla extract, and once in a while I will pull one of the vanilla beans out of the jar of extract and snip the end off and just squeeze the vanilla seeds from it into the jam instead of using extract. It adds another visual element, with the tiny black seeds swimming in the marmalade.

THE LEMON MARMALADE
Not a terribly sweet sort of breakfast jam, not really a true marmalade, this is the rough condiment Alfonso's grandmother made when she had a few extra lemons and some even more precious sugar at hand. She served it with her home-smoked swordfish as well as the salt-cured reading. Too, he remembers her smearing it on justbaked bread for him to eat with a slice of fresh ricotta when times were flush.
Number Of Ingredients 2
Steps:
- First weigh the lemons, or have them weighed at the fruit market, as you'll be using two-thirds their weight in sugar to make the puckery jam. Slice the lemons fairly thin and toss them into a heavy, shallow pan with the prescribed sugar and enough water to barely cover them.
- Over a lively flame, stirring constantly, cook the mixture for a few minutes, then lower the flame and, still stirring, cook for 20 minutes or so, until the water has evaporated and the fruit is softened and trapped in a glossy, thick syrup.
- Let the marmalade cool and then portion it out into 2 or 3 jars with tight-fitting lids to store in the refrigerator. The confection will stay nicely for a week to ten days.

Steps:
- Bring tangerines, lemons, and water to a simmer in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 5 minutes. Let cool slightly. Press parchment directly on surface of marmalade, and refrigerate overnight.
- Remove parchment; return saucepan to medium heat. Bring to a simmer, and cook until citrus rinds are very tender, about 30 minutes. Measure mixture, and return to saucepan over medium-high heat. For each cup of mixture, add 3/4 cup sugar. Simmer until a candy thermometer registers 220 degrees, about 30 minutes. (Tangerine and lemon flesh should be broken down, and rinds should be translucent.) Plate-test marmalade to make sure it is set. Divide among 4 pint-size sterilized glass jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace at tops. Can in water bath for 15 minutes.
