Ingredients




3 cups To 4 c of chopped orange rind (took about 7 small orang
10 cups Water
8 cups Sugar
6 cups Chopped oranges (measured AFTER food processing)
4 tablespoons Lemon juice

Preparation

1 Bring water to a boil, add orange rind that has been chopped. Boil for about 10 minutes. Add the remaining chopped oranges, lemon juice, and sugar. Bring to a boil, and then lower heat to a simmer. Allow to simmer without lid for about 3 hours. Stirring occasionally. After the 3 hours, start to check to see if marmalade will set. ( put small amount on plate, allow to cool a bit, and then push it to see if it will 'wrinkle') Then increase the heat to bring it back up to full boil. Continue  2 Allow to cool, tighten down rings, and store. 3 **This turned out GREAT!! 8-) I was a bit worried that it wasn't going to be very thick, but once it cooled off I was amazed! You can turn the jar sideways and the stuff doesn't even MOVE!! 8-) 4 I will DEFINETELY keep my eyes open for oranges on sale from now on... 8-)
