Ingredients
½ lb blood oranges (approximately 2) 1 ½ cups water1 ¼ cups superfine (or granulated) sugar1 tsp fresh grated ginger1 tsp vanilla extract
Trim away both ends of the oranges and slice them in half lengthways.
Using a very sharp knife, trim away the core of the oranges and pluck out any seeds that you find. Set the cores and the seeds aside. Not all blood oranges have seeds, so don’t stress if you don’t find any.
Cut the orange halves in half (so you have quarters), then slice quarters into thin slices. Go as thin as you can manage.
Bundle up all those seeds and pithy cores in a length of cheesecloth and tie it tightly so that nothing can escape.
Put chopped oranges in a medium bowl and cover with water. Tuck the cheesecloth bundle into the bowl and cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
Remove the cheesecloth bundle and add the sugar and ginger.
Bring the marmalade to a simmer and cook until it reads 220 F on a thermometer
Take the pan off the heat and let it cool for 2 minutes, stir in the vanilla and pour into prepared jars.
Wipe rims, apply lids and rings and process in a boiling water bath canner for 10 minutes.
Serving Size: Makes ~2 cups, 32 (1 tbsp) servings
Number of Servings: 32
