Why? Because you can! And pickle, and jam, or otherwise celebrate the resurgence of the domestic arts our forebears held so dear. Put on your best apron and step into our kitchen, won't you?
Perky, quirky Meyer lemons make for a luscious marmalade. Adding water results in a marm that's creamier, fluffier, not sticky! Clementines punch up the flavor and enliven the color. Very nice indeed. Short cooking time, keeps very well.
Lemon curd doesn't get any easier than using your Vitamix. No fancy blender? Then choose to make it in the microwave. Either way you will enjoy this bright lemon curd!
My Meyer lemons are starting to come in and will store well on the tree through early spring. I love this tart and sweet marmalade with chunks of fresh pineapple. If you don't have time to macerate the pineapple overnight, mash to prevent floating.
This is the first marmalade that I posted when I started way back in April 2010. Creative marmalades are a great way to keep your canning exciting in the winter months. This one happens to make a superb glaze for pork or chicken.
