    Ginger Pear Marmalade


    Source of Recipe

    Recipe Introduction


    from Foods Down Under

    List of Ingredients




    4 lb Hard unripe pears Peeled & cored & cut into small even dice
    5 1/2 cup Sugar
    Juice of 3 lemons
    8 oz Preserved ginger in syrup

    Recipe



    * 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.
