I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Wash the fruit under the tap to remove any dirt / oils from the skin of the fruit.
Using a vegetable peeler remove strips of zest from the oranges (as pictured).
Cut away all the pith (white flesh) from the oranges and cut the fruit into quaters.
Add the quarters to a saucepan with 150gms of cold water and simmer the fruit with the lid on the pan for approx 15/20 mins until soft.
Whilst the fruit is simmering in the pan, cut the strips of zest into thin strips by hand and add them to the TM bowl.
Add 300g water to the strips of peel and cook 4 min / 100 degrees /
"Counter-clockwise operation" / speed 2. Drain the zest through the TM basket and set aside.
Using a potato masher sqaush the simmered orange flesh in the saucepan to get all the maximum amount of juice out of the fruit.
Strain it through a plastic seive into measuring jug.
You should get 400 to 500mls of orange juice from 7 oranges.
You need 500mls exactly! so if it doesn't quite reach the top line top it up with cold water.
Add the sugar, jam setter, chopped peel strips, and juice to the bowl and cook for 15 min / Varoma /
"Counter-clockwise operation" / speed 1 with the measuring cup removed and TM basket placed on mixing bowl lid.Cook for a further 60mins / 100 degrees /
"Counter-clockwise operation" / speed 1 with MC removed and TM basket on mixing bowl lid.
Pour the marmalade into the 3 x warm 300ml jars, tighten the lid and turn upside down for 5 mins to seal the jars, then turn up right and set aside to cool.
The thin strips of zest will float to the top of each jar!!! so.....
as the mixture cools, shake them lightly back and forth to mix and swirl the peel evenly through the marmalade as it begins to set, this normally starts to happen 1 to 2 hours after being jar'd. I normally put them on a heat pad in front of me on the coffee table as i watch TV in the evening i can monitor the mix.
Your friends will be so impressed with this professional homemade marmalade they'll be asking for more
Method
Tip
1) I use NEW jars rather than recycled jars i've saved from shop bought items. The smells left in old jars can effect the taste of your marmalde and the seals are second hand.
2) Don't force the orange pulp through the seive otherwise you'll get cloudy marmalde
3) If you like less zest, use less and add more liquid to balance up the loss in volume.

Comments
have used this recipe many times, always a success. Won multiple times in local agricultural show. if insufficient juice I top up with bought orange juice that has no added sugar and pulp free and 90+% orange juice. I also add a lemon or two to the oranges.
I made as per the recipe and it turned out great. Thank you.
.
I also substituted 1 orange for 2 Lemons and did not add jam setter. I was
lucky enough to have oranges from a neighbours tree which also meant the zest was especially fragrant. My Marmalade looked just like your photos and was really delicious. Thank you
Great recipe and tips for a yummy none bitter marmalade.
Only change was the substitute of 1 orange for 2 Lemons and did not add jam setter.
I can no longer see this recipe? It is a favourite of mine. Will it be put back up?
Cani use this recipe in my TM5 ?
Turned out perfectly. Not bitter at all. Well done
Use both as directed in the recipe.
