With winter comes citrus season.  You will find oranges, lemons, limes, and grapefruit in abundance this time of year.  An easy way to preserve this bounty is to make this  orange-ginger marmalade.  Orange marmalade is delicious spread on freshly baked scone, layered into a cake, or simply on a piece of toast.  This recipe specifically calls for oranges but feel free to substitute with clementines or tangerines- both would be wonderful.  Orange-ginger marmalade is the must-make preserve of the season.
