This sweet marmalade made from fresh pineapple and flavored with a hint of zesty lemon makes a delicious spread.
3 1/2 cups shredded or ground fresh pineapple flesh
3 thinly sliced lemons
1 quart water
4 1/2 cups sugar
Place the prepared fruits and water in a 6-quart pot and let stand overnight. Boil until lemon is tender, about 20 minutes.
Add sugar, stir until dissolved and boil rapidly about 25 minutes, until 2 drops form on the edge of a metal spoon and drop off simultaneously. For a stiffer marmalade, continue cooking until the drops run together as they fall off.
Skim the foam from the surface and pour the marmalade into hot sterile jars and seal. Store in a cool dry place.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Has a nice flavor. I was confused with the 2 drops from the spoon. My spoon never got 2 drops. I cooked it for 34 minutes. I'm sure I over cooked because I only had 4 cups of marmalade. But very good. I would make again but not sure how long to cook. 25 min it still was very thin.

I loved this recipe. It did take a bit longer but turned out beautiful Thank you!
I have 2 pineapples that I need to use, I really thought I needed fresh pineapple for curd and then it said it's best not to use fresh at all only pineapple juice that's been canned so now it's marmalade time!!

Little bit too sweet for my taste but the family loved it. Next time I'll try less sugar to see how that turns out
Wondering if canning sugar was used as most recipes call for that it pectin.

I just made this recipe. It took me a lot longer than 25 minutes to get it to gel, but it did eventually get there. Very sweet, which marmalades usually are, so if you don't like that, beware. I chose to process in a canner just to be sure. Looks very pretty in the jar. Good flavor!

After I tried this recipe, I could understand the 5 Star rating! Although it takes 2 days to make the recipe, it is well worth the wait. My family went wild over it.

The first time I made this recipe, I took a jar to our county fair and it won first place and then won Best in Class - Marmalade! Great Taste and easy to make.
