they were yummy, even though i only made 1/2 the recipe and had to tweak the quantities a bit - easy peasy, have a go
i used my home made marmalade which i have been making for years using the method where you cook the whole fruit first - the method came from Good Food On a Budget by Georgina Horley, it's ancient but all the recipes i've used still work - i have used several combinations of fruit and only in the last five years have i started to include some seville orange - my taste for bitter foods has developed only recently, so i always used to make my marmalade with eating oranges + clementines & lemons
sometimes i haven't got enough jam jars when the right fruit are available, so i freeze the fruit once it's cooked - i cook it, slice the peel, chop up the fruit pulp and weigh it, then measure the right amount of liquid and freeze them together with accurate labelling to remind me - when i'm ready i can thaw it, add the sugar (and more fruit if i like) and carry on
