Lemon Marmalade Recipe
A two ingredient all natural lemon marmalade without artificial pectin added.
Ingredients
- 2.2 pounds lemon fresh, skin on
- 3¾ cup sugar
Instructions
- Rinse lemons to get rid of impurities and pat dry.
- Cut off lemon ends and discard, cut into two, and slice lemon.
- Pick out seeds and discard seeds.
- Place lemons into a large cooking pot with the sugar and mix up.
- Bring to a rolling boil, reduce heat and simmer over a low to medium heat setting.
- Reduce until lemons start to appear glossy and a bit translucent.
- Blend with an immersion blender. I like it chunky.
- Test if the marmalade is set by dropping some on an ice-cold plate. The setting temperature to check with a candy thermometer is 220 Fahrenheit/ 105 Celsius. If it runs, cook until set, repeat test.
- Fill clean jars with your marmalade up to the rim. Close jar with lid and turn upside down to create vacuum. Turn it back down after 10 min or so.
- Store jars.
Notes
- 3 x 10 oz/ 370 ml jars with lids.
- You will need about 3 x 10 oz/ 370 ml jars with lids.
