  1. D

    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.
