Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.


6 Seville oranges (or other thin-skinned orange)
2 lemons, juiced
8 cups water
8 ounces crystallized ginger, chopped
1 teaspoon ground ginger
4 pounds sugar
Remove orange zest and slice into fine slivers; remove pith. Halve oranges and lemons, remove seeds and squeeze the juice into a large bowl. Tie the seeds and put in a cheesecloth bag. Chop the oranges and put them and the bag in the bowl. Add the water, cover and leave for 24 hours.
Put the contents of the bowl into a large preserving pan; bring to a boil, then simmer for 1 1/2 hours. Remove the cheesecloth bag; add both gingers and sugar. Stir well; bring back to a boil and boil briskly for 10 minutes.
Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes. Stir well again, then pour into hot, sterilized jars; seal and process in boiling water bath for 5 minutes.

forgot the pectin as an ingredient
It wasn't forgotten. Traditional orange marmalade doesn't require commercial pectin. There is enough natural pectin in the skin of the oranges.
The preoportions were right, but when I folloewd the cooking instructions, the marmalade did not set up. I ended up simmering the mix with the sugar added for about an hour and it gelled perfectly. I left out the powdered ginger because I don't like that flavor.
