Recommended Posts

This is a recipe from the National Trust Jams, Preserves and Edible Gifts book. I have made it a couple of times, really easy and oh, so lemony!

 

Peckover Lemon Marmalade

 

8 lemons, roughly chopped

1.7 litres/3 pints water

1.35kg/3lb sugar

 

Reduce lemons to a pulp in a food processor. Put into a large bowl with the water. Cover with a clean cloth and leave to soak for 24 hours.

 

Place fruit and liquid in a large pan and bring to the boil. Boil for 2 hours until peel is tender. Gradually stir in warmed sugar, making sure it is completely dissolved before bringing it back to the boil. Boil rapidly for about 30 minutes or until setting point is reached. Pot and cover. I usually leave marmalades for 15 mins before potting so that the fruit doesn't sink but as this is very fruity, rather than peel suspended in jelly it is less likely to happen.
