Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds tangerines (about 18), unpeeled, washed, ends trimmed, and cut crosswise into thin slices
  • 4 cups sugar

Directions

Place a small plate in freezer. In a large pot, bring tangerines and 6 cups water to a boil over high. Reduce heat to medium and cook at a rapid simmer until tangerine peels are tender, 20 minutes.

Add sugar, increase heat to medium-high, and stir until sugar dissolves. Return to a boil and cook, stirring often, until mixture is thick and darkens slightly, 40 to 45 minutes. To test for doneness, drop a spoonful on frozen plate and freeze 2 minutes. Marmalade is done if it has a slight film that wrinkles when pushed with a finger. If it spreads out and thins immediately, continue cooking. Transfer marmalade to airtight containers, cover, and let cool completely.

      Cook's Notes

To store, refrigerate marmalade up to 1 month, or freeze, up to 6 months.

                I also used 3lb of tangerines rather than the 18 the recipe suggests. And it did take a long time for the marmalade to jell. But my bigger issue is that it’s a bit bitter to me. I think next time I’ll peel the tangerines, slice them thin, then boil them before I start the marmalade process to hopefully remove the bitterness. And it will allow me to slice the peel thinner than just slicing into rings as this recipe states.

                I have organic Tangerines which the skins aren't pretty. I was wondering if I should just peel them first? This defeats the point of the marmalade though! Any suggestions?

                While the end result was divine, I had some problems with this recipe too. For starters, 3 lbs of Honey Tangerines from my tree equates to way more than 18, so I went with the actual weight.  The big problem was that I had to cook the fruit much longer than the recipe states.  I ended up cooking for an hour and a half to get the right consistency.  I'm going to try again with 4 cups of water instead of 6.  I did remove the seeds before cooking too.

                I LOVE LOVE this recipe. I made it with Satsumas instead of tangerines since I live in Louisiana and it turned out to be one of the best marmalades I have ever eaten.  And my family loved it as well. I gave it away in everyone's Christmas baskets.   
                
                A word of caution.  I had to cook the marmalade for a little longer than it called for, which meant that I lowered the temperature to medium for the last fifteen minutes so it wouldn't burn.  All in all, it cooked for about 1 hour 20 minutes.

                I made this recipe today and it was awful!
                When I opened the lid to check on the marmalade all the seeds were floating on the top.
                I tasted the recipe and it was so bad.  Words cannot describe how bad it was.
                I just researched orange marmalade recipes and they say to remove the seeds as
                you slice the oranges.  This tangerine marmalade recipe left out that detail.
                I will try it again next week end, without the seeds.
