A perfect guide to making marmalade from the award-winning Lucy Deedes.
Marmalade had been around for hundreds of years - as a Portuguese sweetmeat,an after-dinner digestif,an aphrodisiac - before it turned into the most famous breakfast ingredient ever.
It has been a household staple for over 200 years,including the Queen (who reputedly had Tiptree Orange Marmalade on her white toast).
Some like a clear jelly marmalade,with just a few wafers of peel hanging like seahorses in the jar; some a firm orange mixture with no extras. Some refuse to touch it unless it's a dark paste,boiled down almost to toffee with a passing suggestion of booze about it.
Whichever way you like yours,there's the perfect recipe in The Little Book of Marmalade for you. Let Lucy Deedes,award-winning marmalade-maker,guide you through it for the perfect accompaniment all year round.
