Ginger Marmelade

My mum makes a really wonderful ginger marmelade and I have to share it, it is too good to keep it to myself! If you want to try, the recipe is below.
Ginger Marmelade

10 big untreated Oranges

3 grapefruits ( you can mix yellow and red)

2 lemons

5kg sugar

400g fresh ginger (peeled)


Peel the skins of all the fruits and grate the skins finely.

Put them in a big pan, add the fruits cut in small dice, 5kg of sugar and 1 litre of water.

Mix it and leave it for 24h.

Boil for 1h.

Grate the ginger, add it to the marmelade and continue to boil till the jam is thick (around 30 minutes). Take the scum of the jam and pot it.

Enjoy!


It is really delicious on homemade bread. For a good and simple recipe, go on Louise's blog.
