2. ORANGE MARMALADE. Another Style.
PORTUCAL KABOUK TATLI.
Ingredients:
Oranges ...........................3 to 4, the skins.
Lemon .............................................1.
Sugar ......................................3 pounds.
Water .....................................4 cupfuls.
Method:
Select thick skinned oranges, cut each into ten or twelve parts, skin carefully;
then, with the aid of a sharp knife, free these of the outer red surface. When
these are ready, roll up each piece of skin and string over some white thread,
then after leaving in cold water for two hours or more, spread on linen,
meanwhile sprinkling over them the juice of the lemon. This done, boil the sugar
in the water, then add the string of rolled skins, also one teaspoonful of lemon
juice and boil until it becomes the thickness of honey.
The thread of the rolled orange skins should be pulled off after the preserve is
sufficiently cool.
