marmalade

6 Seville oranges
3 lemons
9lbs sugar
6 pints of water

Method
Slice the fruit, remove pips, add water and allow to stand for 24 hours.  Then boil without sugar for about an hour or longer, until the peel is soft.
Add sugar, boil till peel is transparent and the marmalade jellies when tested.
