GINGER MARMALADE



Ginger Marmalade image

This is the best ginger marmalade that I have ever tasted. Recently disappointed with the texture and aftertaste of another ginger marmalade, I searched for a homemade ginger marmalade and found only one very inadequate recipe. I created my own based on an orange marmalade recipe, and it turned out great.

Time 8h35m

Yield 30

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 ½ cups peeled fresh ginger
4 cups water
5 cups white sugar
1 (3 ounce) pouch liquid pectin
5 half pint canning jars with lids and rings

Steps:

  • Divide the ginger in half, and chop half into cubes; shred the other half with a box grater or in a food processor using the shredding blade. Total ginger should equal 3 cups. Place the ginger into a large saucepan with water over medium heat, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to a simmer. Cover the pot, and simmer the ginger until tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Add more water if needed to keep mixture from drying out. Pour the cooked ginger into a fine-mesh strainer, drain, and retain 1/2 cup of the ginger-flavored water. Place the cooked ginger in a bowl with the retained liquid, and cool at least 4 hours or overnight in refrigerator.
  • When ginger is thoroughly cooled, place into a large, heavy-bottomed pot, and stir in the sugar; bring to a boil over medium-high heat, and boil hard for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in the pouch of liquid pectin, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook for 7 more minutes, skimming foam from top of marmalade.
  • Sterilize the canning jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the marmalade into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
  • Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 15 minutes.
  • Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

ORANGE-GRAPEFRUIT MARMALADE WITH GINGER



Orange-Grapefruit Marmalade with Ginger image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     dessert

Time P1DT2h35m

Yield 1 pint

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 oranges
1 grapefruit
3 cups sugar
2 ounces crystallized ginger, cut in strips
1 box Fruit Pectin Powder, (1-ounce)

Steps:

  • Cut fruit in half, squeeze out juice and pulp, discard seeds. The volume of this should be approximately 4 cups. Remove zest, this should yield approximately 1/2 cup. Transfer juice, pulp and zest to a large glass bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours. This helps the peel to soften.
  • After soaking, put the citrus in a large stockpot. Add 6 cups of water, simmer for 1 1/2 hours. A sample of the peel should feel quite tender if rubbed between fingers. Add sugar and ginger. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Boil hard for 20 minutes until sugar is dissolved and mixture is thickened. If the mixture foams up, add a pat of butter and the froth will subside.
  • Test for jell-point: drop a small amount of hot marmalade on a chilled plate. Return to the freezer for 1 minute. If surface forms a skin, it has reached jelling point, if still syrupy, continue cooking and test again in 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, stir in pectin. Cool for 15 minutes, spoon into half-pint sterilized jars leaving 1/4-inch headspace and seal.
  • ** Recipe Note: Traditionally the citrus seeds and pith are enclosed in a nylon bag and boiled along with the juice/pulp. This releases the natural pectin that is stored in that part of the orange. For time and ease, we eliminated that step and used store-bought fruit pectin. It worked very well.
  • ***To sterilize the canning jars, wash the containers in hot, soapy water and rinse. Boil them in a large pot for 10 minutes. Keep the jars in hot water until ready to use to prevent the jars from cracking. Dry with paper towels before filling with marmalade. Once filled, put on lids and collar. Boil again for 10 minutes to seal the jars.

MARMALADE-GINGER CAKE



MARMALADE-GINGER CAKE image

Categories     Cake     Ginger     Dessert     Bake     Low Sodium

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 stick butter, softened
2 eggs
3/4 cup sugar (or more, to taste - but wait until after the marmalade and ginger are added since they both contain sugar)
1 tablespoon vanilla
Approx. 1 cup orange marmalade (or more, to taste)
2-1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
1/2 pound diced crystallized ginger
Glaze (optional): powdered (ground) ginger, sugar, and hot water. The mixture should be thick and syrupy. Taste to check that you have reached the desired ratio of sweetness vs. spiciness.

Steps:

  • Butter and flour a 7-by-9-inch (or 8-inch square) baking dish. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a 1-quart bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla; mix until creamy. Add the marmalade and mix until blended. In a larger bowl (2 quarts or more), mix the flour, baking powder and salt. Pour in the marmalade mixture and mix until just blended. Add the diced ginger and mix again until just blended. Taste to make sure you have the flavor balance that you desire. (HINT: Feel free to add the zest from one orange and/or a teaspoon of powdered ginger to the batter, depending on which side of the balance you favor; or you can add more of both for a more intense flavor. If you add more marmalade, however, you might need to add more flour to keep the cake from turning out soggy.) Scrape the batter into the baking dish and bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Paint with the glaze while the cake is still hot, then allow it to cool before turning it out onto a serving platter. Delicious with whipped cream (add a pinch or two of powdered ginger and/or a splash of rum to the whipped cream if you like).

Tips:

  • Select the right oranges: Use Seville oranges or similar bitter oranges for their unique flavor and high pectin content, which helps the marmalade set.
  • Prepare the oranges properly: Thoroughly wash and scrub the oranges to remove any wax or dirt. Cut them into quarters and remove the pith and seeds.
  • Use a large pot: The marmalade will expand during cooking, so use a large pot to prevent boil-overs.
  • Cook the marmalade in stages: Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the oranges are soft and the peel is translucent. This may take several hours.
  • Test the setting point: To check if the marmalade is ready, place a small spoonful on a cold plate. If it wrinkles when you push your finger through it, it is ready.
  • Store the marmalade properly: Pour the hot marmalade into sterilized jars and seal them tightly. Store the jars in a cool, dark place for up to a year.

Conclusion:

Homemade ginger marmalade is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed in many ways. Spread it on toast, scones, or muffins, or use it as a glaze for ham or chicken. It also makes a great addition to cheeseboards and charcuterie platters. With its zesty flavor and beautiful color, ginger marmalade is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
