Once you get the process down, there is a new search engine based on Google
for searching for recipes at http://theory.stanford.edu/~amitp/recipe.html .
I typed in 'marmalade' (no quotes) and got "about 114,000" recipes. Some are
recipes that use marmalade but there are plenty of marmalade recipes also.

Good luck.
