Ingredients

• 4 large oranges
• 2 large lemons
• 4 cups granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
• 3 cups water

Directions

Step 1

Wash and dry the oranges and lemons. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the zest of the oranges and lemons in wide strips, avoiding as much of the white pith as possible.

Step 2

Slice the zest into thin strips and set aside. Peel the remaining white pith off the oranges and lemons and discard.

Step 3

Cut the peeled citrus into small chunks, removing any seeds. Place the fruit chunks and any juice into a large pot.

Step 4

Add the sliced zest, water, and sugar to the pot. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer. Let the mixture cook for 45–60 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and reaches a marmalade-like consistency. Skim off any foam that forms on the surface.

Step 6

Finely chop the fresh rosemary and thyme. When the marmalade has thickened, stir in the chopped herbs and allow them to cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Step 7

Remove the pot from the heat and let the marmalade cool for 10 minutes.

Step 8

Transfer the marmalade to sterilized jars and seal tightly. Allow the jars to cool completely before storing in the refrigerator for up to 3 months.
