Ingredients
  • 12 small Rangpur limes
  • 5 Lemons
  • 4 1/2 cup Sugar (2 1/4 lbs)
Directions
  1. 1
    Wash the Rangpur limes and lemons thoroughly to remove any wax or dirt.
  2. 2
    Remove seeds from the citrus fruits and chop the fruit, including peel and pith, into small pieces using a food processor or knife.
  3. 3
    Measure the chopped citrus pulp. Add 3 cups of water for every cup of pulp measured.
  4. 4
    Cover the mixture and let it stand at room temperature overnight to macerate the peels.
  5. 5
    The next morning, transfer the mixture to a large preserving kettle or heavy-bottomed pot.
  6. 6
    Bring to a boil, uncovered, and simmer for 20 minutes to soften the rinds.
  7. 7
    Remove from heat, cover, and let the mixture stand overnight again to further tenderize the skins.
  8. 8
    The following morning, measure the total volume of the citrus mixture.
  9. 9
    For each cup of citrus mixture, add 3/4 cup of sugar. Combine the fruit and sugar in the preserving kettle.
  10. 10
    Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  11. 11
    Increase heat to high and bring to a rolling boil. Boil rapidly for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
  12. 12
    Test for the jelling point using a candy thermometer (220&# 194;°F (104ð (106ðC)C)âÂÂ222ðF) or the spoon test: two drops from the spoon should merge and fall as one.
  13. 13
    Ladle the hot marmalade into sterilized hot jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace.
  14. 14
    Wipe the rims and threads of the jars with a hot, damp cloth to ensure a clean seal.
  15. 15
    While the contents are still hot, cover the surface with a thin layer of melted paraffin wax.
  16. 16
    Once the first layer sets, apply a second layer of melted paraffin, tilting the jar to ensure complete coverage.
