Uncle Bill's Seville Orange Marmalade
My mother used to make seville orange marmalade for many years. I then made some modifications and changes to enhance the flavor and she gave me full marks for my changes.
Steps
Cut seville oranges in half and squeeze out as much juice as possible into a large bowl using a spoon or a wooden hand juicer.
Save peels.
Cut the regular orange in half and squeeze the juice into the same bowl using a spoon or a wooden hand juicer , save peels.
Cut lemons in half and squeeze the juice into the same bowlusing a spoon or a wooden hand juicer , save peels.
Using a spoon with slots , remove pulp and seeds from the juiced oranges and lemons , place pulp and seeds in a cheesecloth.
Reserve.
Cut both orange peels and lemon peels into quarters.
Using a spoon , scrape the white pulp off the peels on all oranges and lemons and discard.
Slice the peels thin , about 1 / 8 inch thickness.
Measure the sliced peel and add to the juice in the bowl.
For each cup of peel , add 3 cups of boiling water.
Cover and leave to soak for at least 12 hours.
Next , place soaked peel mixture including liquid in a large heavy saucepan.
Tie reserved pulp and seeds in a cheesecloth bag.
