Banana Marmalade Recipes

Steps:

• Peel and slice the bananas into rounds.
• cut out any dark spots.
• Combine all the ingredients in a large kettle.
• Cook over low heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
• Cook, stirring frequently to prevent sticking, for about 15 mins.
• or until the mixture is of desired consistency.
• Pour into sterilized jars and seal.
• Store banana marmalade in a cool place.

Steps:

• Cut the oranges and lemons in half crosswise, then into very thin half-moon slices. (If you have a mandoline, this will be quite fast.) Discard any seeds. Place the sliced fruit and their juices into a stainless-steel pot. Add 8 cups water and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring often. Remove from the heat and stir in the sugar until it dissolves. Cover and allow to stand overnight at room temperature.
• The next day, bring the mixture back to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 2 hours. Turn the heat up to medium and boil gently, stirring often, for another 30 minutes. Skim off any foam that forms on the top. Cook the marmalade until it reaches 220 degrees F on a candy thermometer. If you want to be doubly sure it's ready, place a small amount on a plate and refrigerate it until it's cool but not cold. If it's firm -- neither runny nor too hard -- it's done. It will be a golden orange color. (If the marmalade is runny, continue cooking it and if it's too hard, add more water.)
• Pour the marmalade into clean, hot Mason jars; wipe the rims thoroughly with a clean damp paper towel, and seal with the lids. Store in the pantry for up to a year.

Steps:

• Sugar the rims of 4 large margarita glasses. To do so, pour sugar onto a small plate, moisten the rims of the glasses on a damp towel and press them into the sugar.
• In a blender, combine tequila, limeade, triple sec and ice. Blend until smooth. Add bananas and blend again until smooth. Pour into glasses and serve.

Steps:

• Divide the ginger in half, and chop half into cubes; shred the other half with a box grater or in a food processor using the shredding blade. Total ginger should equal 3 cups. Place the ginger into a large saucepan with water over medium heat, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to a simmer. Cover the pot, and simmer the ginger until tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Add more water if needed to keep mixture from drying out. Pour the cooked ginger into a fine-mesh strainer, drain, and retain 1/2 cup of the ginger-flavored water. Place the cooked ginger in a bowl with the retained liquid, and cool at least 4 hours or overnight in refrigerator.
• When ginger is thoroughly cooled, place into a large, heavy-bottomed pot, and stir in the sugar; bring to a boil over medium-high heat, and boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in the pouch of liquid pectin, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook for 7 more minutes, skimming foam from top of marmalade.
• Sterilize the canning jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the marmalade into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
• Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.
• Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Steps:

• Slice grapefruit, oranges and mandarins very thinly.
• Place in a large bowl and cover with 6 pints (or about 2. 8 litres) of water and stand overnight.
• Next morning put them into a large pot and boil slowly till skins are tenders (about 2 hours).
• Meanwhile, scrape the pulp from the passionfruit.
• Reserve.
• Place the skins from the passionfruit in a separate pot, cover with water and cook until skins are tender.
• Scrape out pulpy inner flesh and discard outer skin.
• Chop the flesh and add to the pot of tenderised citrus skins.
• Add the juice of 2 lemons and 6 lb (or about 2. 8kg) of sugar.
• Stir until sugar is dissolved then boil until setting point is reached.
• Add the passionfruit pulp and return to boil for 2 minutes.
• Allow to stand for 10 minutes.
• Boil and seal.
• Don’t open for 6 weeks!

Steps:

• Inspect 3 pint-sized jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse jars in simmering water until marmalade is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
• Place clementines and zest in a food processor; blend until well mashed. Transfer to a medium saucepan. Repeat with the cherries and pineapple.
• Add lemon juice and pectin to the fruit in the saucepan. Mix and bring to a boil over medium heat. Stir in sugar. Return to a boil and cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Pack marmalade mixture into the hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 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.
