Marmalade

 

Again like the cordial you can use any citrus with this recipe. I chose to use Limes because as I said in the Cordial post, I had many of them.

 My appoligies for the lack of photo's in this blog, it seems I got carried away with the making and forgot to take them!!

I was surprised at how easy this marmalade recipe was, I have made marmalade before and it had so many steps and ingredients I was put off. Until now that is. Again substitute the limes for lemons, oranges or any citrus you desire. its only limited by your imagination! This recipe makes approximately 2 litres.

Sterilised jars, now cooling

Pour into sterilised jars and seal. Store in fridge or cool cupboard
