Bought some blood oranges at the Central Market. I buy a few to add color to the blood oranges on my tree which rarely shows any real color. Thinking, make some more marmalade. Then I actually thought! (second time this year, wowee!)
Going to juice all the blood oranges, fill the juice into sterilized jars, seal, put into a waterbath and boil that for an hour. Add a few lemons to the mix, the juice should be acid enough to keep: marmalade is the same thing except has peels and sugar.
In summer, make blood orange gelato, blood orange sauce, add to some gin and tonic water, etc etc.
Be good!
Hmmm bit of a search found this:
http://www.epicurious.com/expert-advice/preserve-winter-citrus-blood-orange-tang...Preserve blood oranges in the same way as lemon is preserved. Oh yeah!
Searched for preserving juice—glad I did! Will have to juice the oranges one by one, then strain the juice, heat to 190°F (whatever that is in °C) ladle into sterilised jars, seal, water batch process 15 minutes. Must be careful not to get any pith in the juice—bitter, yuck!
So two things to do tomorrow.
