Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 lemon (zest and juice of)
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 4 cups granulated sugar

Instructions

  1. Wash the oranges and lemon thoroughly to remove any residues.
  2. Cut off the ends of each orange, halve them, and chop into segments while discarding seeds.
  3. Blend the orange pieces in a food processor until finely chopped.
  4. In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine chopped oranges, lemon zest and juice, water, and sugar; stir well.
  5. Bring to a boil then reduce to a low boil, simmering for about 30-35 minutes until thickened.
  6. Test for consistency using a chilled plate; if it holds its shape slightly when cooled, it's ready.
  7. Pour into jars once cooled down to room temperature.
