I have a great variety of citrus fruit available, and would like to turn
some of the stuff into marmalade. I have had success with blood oranges, but have had several failures, in that they have failed to jell. I have never used added pectin, and would like to consider it. Any suggestions, or tips? Mike Acord |

Marmalade is not meant to be "solid". You can increase the natural pectin measurably by the addition of the pips from several lemons. They do not add measurably to the flavor. Wayne |
