What's Cooking Wednesday - Peach Orange Marmalade


This is my time of year, I LOVE preserving. It is almost OCD'ish. My husband rolls his eyes at me when ever I find a new and somewhat different recipe. This one I found and I had to try since my father is a true lover of marmalade.






Peaches, with peel, quartered and pitted 7


Orange, cut up and seeds removed 1


Maraschino cherries, pitted 1/3 cup




Granulated Sugar, amount = to pulp


Almond Flavouring 1/2 tsp.




Put peaches and, orange and cherries through food grinder. Measure pulp and return to large pot.




Add same amount of sugar as there is pulp. Add almond flavouring. Heat and stir until sugar dissolves and it comes to a boil. Boil 30 to 40 minutes, stiffing occasionally, until a small spoonful cooled on a chilled saucer jells. Pour into hot sterilized jars to within 1.4 inch of top. Seal. Makes 5 half pints.
