Cooking Ingredients for Very Special Pear Marmalade Recipe

4 lb Hard unripe pears
Peel/cored
Cut into small even dice
5-1/2 c Sugar
Juice of 3 lemons
8 oz Preserved ginger in syrup

Very Special Pear Marmalade Preparation

1- Put pears in a heavy stainless steel or enamel pan – the heavier the better. Add sugar and lemon juice. Bring to a boil and stir until the sugar has dissolved, about 5 min. 2 – Dice the pieces of preserved ginger to match the pear pieces as nearly as you can. Add the syrup and the ginger to the pears. 3 – Simmer until the pears become transparent and turn the color of the ginger, 20-25 min. Do not take the marmalade higher than 220 degrees on the candy thermometer; it will thicken more as it cools. 4 – Spoon into sterilized jars or small jars. Cool, refrig- erate. Or spoon into freezer jars leaving 1 space. Cool and freeze. Makes 3 pints. The pears and ginger don”t have to be precise, but it does look prettier. Select hard pears such as Kieffer or Seckel.
