Green Tomato and Lemon Marmalade image

Here is a surprising, and quick, way to use up the green tomatoes that you couldn't resist at the farmers' market. Tangier, more complex and looser than most marmalades, this one offers candied slivers of fruit suspended in a thick, honeyed syrup that is just jellied enough to spread, yet runny enough to be dolloped over ice cream, or perhaps some leftover mascarpone.

Time 45m

Yield 1 3/4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lemon, thinly sliced and seeded
2 1/4 pounds green tomatoes (about 5 large tomatoes), cored and thinly sliced
3 1/4 cups sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Bring lemon slices to a boil in a pot of water. Drain.
  • Combine all ingredients in a saucepan along with 1/4 cup water, and bring to a simmer, stirring, to dissolve sugar. Cook at a bare simmer until tomatoes and lemon slices are translucent and syrup thickens, 20 to 30 minutes. Cool completely; store in refrigerator.
