Best Lemon Carrot Marmalade Recipes

CARROT JAM

Steps:

• Peel and grate a carrot to total 1/2 cup (50g) grated. Set aside.
• With the rest of the carrots, peel them and chop into rounds.
• Put in a saucepan and add enough water to just cover them and cook for 10 minutes or until soft, then drain.
• Puree the cooked carrots with a blender or immersion hand blender. If necessary, put the pureed carrots into a fine sieve and push out any excess water.
• Weigh out 2 cups (400g) of the pureed carrot and discard the rest (though it's great to add to soups, stews or mixed with maple syrup and added to porridge).
• Put the carrot puree, grated carrot and sugar into a large saucepan. Add the granulated sugar and, while stirring constantly, bring to the boil for five minutes. Skim if it gets frothy.
• Allow to cool slightly, then stir in the lemon zest and juice.
• Pour into warm, sterilised jars and screw on the lids. Store in a cool, dry place and use within one year.

LEMON-CARROT MARMALADE

Steps:

• Grind the lemons and carrots together in a meat grinder, using the coarsest blade. Combine all the ingredients in a large pot and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour or until juice has thickened. Pour into hot, sterilized jelly glasses and cover with a thin layer of melted paraffin. When the paraffin has hardened, cover the glasses and store.

Steps:

• Wash the lemon and orange and shred them finely.
• Keep all the seeds from both, and put them in a clean new tea ball, or sew them into a scrap of cheesecloth.
• Put the canning jars in a large kettle with enough water to come to an inch above the rims.
• Turn the heat on just after you add the sugar and carrots to the marmalade- jars must be boiled 10 minutes to be sterilized.
• Put the lemon and orange shreds and juice in a large, broad pot with the water and the seeds, and boil for ten minutes.
• Wash, peel and grate the carrots.
• Add the carrots and sugar to the peels.
• Continue boiling until the marmalade is thick and forms a sheet when poured from the spoon, about 30 minutes longer.
• Fish out the seeds, draining them well.
• Seal the marmalade in sterilized jars and process in boiling water for 5 minutes.
