    Ultimate Orange Marmalade Recipe with step by step pictures. This is made with Orange and Lime Juice. Perfect spread with toast.

    Orange Marmalade

     

    I love making jams, not only it is healthy to make at home. But homemade jams taste really delicious than the store bought kind. I have never made marmalade before, when i saw few oranges lying in the fridge..I decided to make marmalade using that and it turned out delicious.

    As usual i don't like to add pectin or preservatives in my jam..I make it with just fruit puree, sugar and a dash of lemon juice. The lemon acts as a preservative. In this marmalade the preservatives is sugar and lemon.

      @WeeCkwhen u pour the syrup in the frozen plate, it will cool down instantly and show you the consistency. When u bring it together using your finger, it will form like a soft jelly or spreadable jam consistency. It will clearly show you the jam consistency.

      Hi Aarthi, I tried the marmalade and it turned out tasty. Thanks. But the problem is I think I over cooked the syrup. It has become thick and slightly crystallized. Please help soon. Any solutions?
