Recipe review: Marmalade

[hrj]

Tried out some of the new orange marmalade on fresh hot biscuits for breakfast today. Delicious. Set up very solidly but still spreadable. So the proportions and methods are basically sound, I just need to solve the problem of introducing it into the final containers while still relatively pourable. So definitely cook to puree before adding the sugar and cooking to a gel.

So I'll set aside one container for my own use, one for the cooking competition at Coronet, one to send to the Saluminati meeting at Beltane (since I won't be able to go) and the rest for gifts as it seems good to me. (Maybe donate a few to the Royal Gift Basket collection.) And then try to remember the Lessons Learned next year. Next year maybe I'll try to figure out how to store it in "marmalade boxes".

I'll be really interested to hear about your results with marmalade boxes, that's been bugging me for ages.
