Marmalade Recipe
MRS. FARQUHARSON SMITH.
Cut the oranges in half and work in a spoon to remove the inside. Slice
the peel very fine. Take the skin and seeds from the pulp and mix peel
and pulp together and weigh them. For every pound of fruit, pour three
pints of cold water over it and let stand twenty four hours. Boil till
chips are tender (about an hour and a half). This absorbs a great deal
of the fluid. Let it stand another twenty-four hours. To every pound of
boiled fruit, put one and one quarter pounds of sugar. Boil till syrup
jellies, and chips are transparent. Boil pippins and skins in a gallon
of water, and strain.
