Grapefruit Marmalade

You can stew this marmalade with ginger or other spices to give it a kick. Though it takes a while on the stovetop, actual prep time is short.

Ingredients

• 2 grapefruit
• 1 cup sugar

Directions

Cut grapefruits into quarters and remove flesh from peels. Cut peels into a medium dice. Place in a saucepan with enough water to cover and bring to a boil. Drain and repeat once more. Meanwhile, over a bowl to catch any juice, separate grapefruit flesh from membranes as best as you can without spending too much time worrying
about it! Discard membranes and add flesh to the bowl of juice. You want one cup of this mixture. If you don’t have quite enough add enough juice from another fruit to make one cup. Bring liquid and one cup sugar to a simmer and stir gently to dissolve sugar. Add grapefruit peels and any spices you are using and reduce heat to low. Cook for about 45 minutes,
until liquid is syrupy and thick. Remove from heat and cool. If desired, puree in a food processor or blender, or leave chunky. Store in a glass container in the refrigerator for up to a month.
