Ingredients
Scale
- 2.0 to 2.3 pounds oranges (about 4 medium)
- 1 lemon (zest and juice)
- 1/3 cup water
- 4 cups granulated sugar
Instructions
- Wash oranges and lemon thoroughly.
- Cut off the ends of each orange, halve them, and then cut into quarters, discarding any seeds.
- In a food processor, puree the orange pieces until finely chopped. Place a plate in the freezer for testing doneness later.
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the pureed oranges, lemon zest, lemon juice, water, and sugar; stir well.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low boil and simmer for 30-35 minutes while stirring frequently until thickened.
- Test doneness using the cold plate method; if it holds its shape slightly when cooled, pour into jars to cool before refrigerating or freezing.
