Nagpur is a place for oranges. We get them during the Christmas season I love oranges and keep buying them when they are in season.
There is no party where oranges are not given out. Every single party I have I give them as...

There is a big orange tree in the backyard of our current house-sit. It is loaded with big juicy oranges and my BIL suggested I make some marmalade. This isn’t my favourite conserve but Vince likes it. Also, I have lots of small...

Yesterday I finally got around to making marmalade from the oranges I bought a week ago. I cooked the oranges already, but then needed plenty of time for the next stage so yesterday morning I tied on my apron and got to work.
To...

I’m a happy bunny today – I stopped off at the supermarket to pick up some extra fruit and vegetables and they had Seville marmalade oranges in stock! I have been keeping an eye out for them but the season is so short it’s a bit...

The other day my friend sent her husband (who is Czech, which may have affected the outcome!) to do the grocery shopping. She asked him to get some oranges so he bought a bag of what he thought were ordinary oranges.
When he got...

Yes I know, I’m obsessed. Here’s my marmalade in the making. The kitchen is filled with orangey steam.
I always use the recipe from my trusty ‘Women’s Institute book of jams and other preserves’, which I bought about 25 years...

Following on from my post the other day, I have overcome the first hurdle on the way to marmalade 2021!
After looking at supermarkets online for Seville oranges and not being able to find anything, I tried our nearest...

No not an overdose of squashes this time, but in contrast a lack of oranges!
I have almost reached the bottom of my last jar of marmalade. This is a crisis! Normally I make a batch of marmalade and it is enough to last a couple of...

Our nearest town has a produce swap meet every fortnight. We don’t grow anything but I did have a lot of little jars and egg cartons that I didn’t like just throwing out. We’d never been before but we took the jars and cartons in...

Hmmm so yesterday’s twice my 4 year old asked for a Sunbutter (sunflower seeds made in like peanut butter) with marmalade (because Pattington best likes marmalade) sandwich. First my husband made him one on his gluten free bread...

As I mentioned the other day, I bought some Seville oranges and at the weekend I made them into marmalade. I made 19 jars and I thought that would probably last me a couple of years.
On Monday I was telling a friend the story of...

MyLotter Fleur (@Fleura) called herself an ‘orange snob’ in her recent discussion about needing Seville oranges rather than any other variety. I thought orange snob was a great term and I’m trying to think what kind of a special...

I like the traditional bitter orange Seville marmalade, but the oranges are only in season for a short time and last year I missed them and have had to get through the whole year without any of the ‘real thing’. So last week when...

I saw a recipe for this and wondered if anyone has ever tried this? If so what do you put it on aside from breads? I don't see it as having as many foods to pair it up with as regular tomatoes and tomato sauce. Adding cinnamon and...

Surplus oranges. I have a house full of them and really can't face another jar of marmalade just yet. Or re-phrased I've run out of jars temporarily. So I want to use up the many at hand and there will be plenty more on the trees...
