Normans Golden Three Fruit Marmalade Recipes

Steps:

• Slice the kumquats and put them in the water (in a pan that can be used on the stovetop). Let this stand overnight.
• The next day, put the pan on the stovetop and boil the fruit until it is tender. Then pour the fruit mixture into a bowl and let stand for another night.
• On the third day, transfer the fruit/water mixture to a cooking pot and add 1 1/2 cups of sugar. Add brandy if used. Boil this mixture until it jells (about 45 minutes).
• Pour into warm, sterilised jars and seal. Or use a processing method you prefer.

Steps:

• Scrub fruit, place in a large bowl, and cover with boiling water. Let stand 2 minutes, then drain. Remove peel in thin slices with a zester, or cut off with a sharp knife into thicker pieces, as desired. Tie peel in a piece of cheesecloth; set aside.
• Chop remaining pith and fruit into small pieces. You can do this with a food processor, but do not puree.
• Combine chopped fruit, cheesecloth bag, and water in a 4-quart stainless-steel pan. Cover, and simmer 1 1/2 hours over low heat, until reduced by almost half. Remove cheesecloth bag, and set aside.
• Strain contents of pan, pressing to extract liquid. Discard solids, and return liquid to pan. Add sugar and dissolve over low heat. Bring to a boil. Add peel from cheesecloth, and simmer over medium heat, until mixture reaches 221 degrees on a candy thermometer or falls in sheets from a spoon, 10 to 30 minutes.
• Store the marmalade in jars in the refrigerator for up to 4 weeks.

Steps:

• Remove seeds from fruits. Put through food grinder. Measure and put into large saucepan.
• For each 1 cup pulp, add 3 cups water. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
• Simmer for 20 minutes. Boil rapidly, stirring 2 or 3 times, for 20 minutes. Measure quantity.
• To each 1 cup pulp, add 1 1/2 cups sugar. Return to a boil, stirring.
• Boil rapidly until thickened and a small amount cooled on a chilled saucer jells. This will take about 20 minutes.
• Pour into hot sterilized half pint jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Place sterilized metal lids on jars and screw metal bands on securely. For added assurance against spoilage, you may choose to process in boiling water bath for 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in large bowl. Stir. Cover and let stand overnight on counter.
• Turn into a large pot; bring to a boil on medium-high heat, stirring often.
• Boil for 30 minutes.
• Cool a small spoonful to room temperature on a chilled saucer to see if it jells.
