Ingredients
2 sumo citrus
2 navel oranges
4 mandarin oranges
Juice of 1 lemon
2 cups water
2 cups granulated sugar
Directions
Using The Forever Peeler, peel the sumo citrus, navel oranges, and mandarin oranges then chop the peels into small bits. Slice the oranges in half and set aside.
Add the chopped peels into a deep pan, squeeze in the juice then toss the rest of the orange into the pot. The pith of the orange will release pectin that will naturally thicken the marmalade.
Stir in the lemon juice, 1 cup of water, 1 cup granulated sugar and let the mixture simmer on low heat for 1 hour.
Then, take out the large pithy orange slices and add the remaining 1 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar. In the meantime, place a small plate in the freezer (you will use this to test the thickness of your marmalade).
Stir for 15 minutes over medium-high heat.
Then, take the cold plate out of the freezer. Place a spoonful of marmalade onto the cold plate, wait 3 seconds, then drag your finger through the mixture. If it separates, the marmalade is ready. If not, continue simmering for another 5-10 minutes and test again.
Next, pour the hot marmalade into a jar and leave it uncovered at room temperature. Once cooled, cover with a fitted lid, and place in the fridge. It will get significantly thicker as it cools and should last up to 2 weeks.
Enjoy your orange marmalade on freshly baked scones with homemade whipped cream.
