Lemon-Ginger [Citron/Estrog/Esrog] Marmalade - pareve
Posted by : Blanche Nonken
I saw this in Rec.food.preserving, and I thought you guys would
like it. Because of the small amount of lemons used, I think it
would be great for etrogim. Enjoy!
Here you go. Think I might have found it here in the first place. It's
REALLY good stuff. Enjoy.!
Lemon-Ginger Marmalade
3 lg lemons
1 x 4 inch piece fresh ginger root
4 cup sugar
1 pk liquid pectin
Cut lemons into quarters and slice thinly. Remove and save the seeds in a
bowl with 1/2 cup water. Put lemon slices in another bowl and cover with 3
cups water. Cover each bowl with plastic wrap and let sit for 24 hours at
room temperature.
Next day put lemon slices and their water in saucepan. Tie seeds in a
small piece of cheese cloth and add them and their water to sauce pan.
Bring to simmer for 45 min.
Puree peeled ginger root with 1/4 cup water and strain to get 1/4 cup
ginger juice.
Remove seeds from sauce pan and add ginger juice. Bring to boil and add
liquid pectin . Boil one minute or til set. Pack in jars (approved canning
techniques, please!) and process 15 min boiling water bath.
