This magnificent jam makes a delicious ready dessert that can be served with thick cream.

Number Of Ingredients 2

2 pounds tangerines
2 pounds sugar

Steps:

  • Cut the tangerines in half. Squeeze out the juice and keep, covered, in the refrigerator.
  • Remove the thin membranes which separate the segments and fibers inside the peel. Then simmer the peels in water for about 7-10 minutes until soft. Drain, cover with a fresh portion of cold water, and soak for 12 hours or overnight, changing the water once or twice if possible, to get rid of all the bitterness.
  • Drain the peel and chop it roughly.
  • Pour the reserved tangerine juice into a large pan. Add the sugar and chopped peel and bring to the boil. Simmer for 15-30 minutes, until the syrup thickens and forms a firm jelly when a drop is left on a cold plate. Let the jam cool slightly, then pour into clean jars and seal tightly.
