Suz Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Well ladies, I made my first batch of marmalade. Tastes great but too stiff. Did the whole plate in the freezer thing, repeatedly. Had DH stand guard at the freezer door, he was 'plate boy' as I tested it nearly every minute. Must have stiffened up during the waterbath. Ah, better luck today with the next batch LOL I still have 3/4 of a case of oranges and 1/2 a case of grapefruit to turn into something. You can guess what everyone will be getting for Christmas LOL While I understand the concept of not making a double batch, cant I at least prep it all at once? i.e chop, soak overnight? Any other ideas on what to do with 60+ oranges and about 25 grapefruit? Forgot to add MIL is scouring yard sales for canning jars and found 6 dozen for $10. Talk about timing! Link to comment
