Dundee Orange Marmalade image

In February the bitter Seville Oranges appear in the stores. They are not good to eat, they are used only for marmalade. This is my Grandmother's way of making marmalade. It is imperative to use the bitter, Seville oranges.Using sweet oranges does not make true marmalade but orange jam! I prefer it chunky but many people prefer the fruit cut in fine shreds.

I'm not a huge fan of marmalade, but I really enjoyed this one. It's not too sweet, and it has a nice tang to it.

This is the best orange marmalade I've ever tasted! The flavor is perfectly balanced, with a lovely sweetness and just the right amount of bitterness. It's also very easy to make, and the results are definitely worth the effort.
