Hi Becky, with zesting the lemons, if you rub the zester on the lemons instead of the lemons on the zester, sort of upside down! So you hold the lemon and rub the zester on the lemon, you can see the pith a lot better, hope you understand and put it to practice because it is really a lot better and easier. ❤❤

@KimKiBu777

Writing from a citrus country, Turkey, you did everything right with the marmalade😊. A little bit of bitterness is the signature of an orange marmalade😊.

@Liwayputi

Becky, if you take all your leftover citrus peels and soak them in vinegar for a few months , you’ll have a nice cleaning solution that you can dilute 50/50 with water and a few drops of dish detergent that smells wonderful.

@karenrogers6730

Hi Becky. I am 70 and have made marmalade in the UK for years. One way is to cook the whole orange, another is the way you have done it and the way I like is to peel the orange and finely shred he peel and juice the orange to add later. The peel is then cooked in water until peel is soft then rest of ingredients added. This gives a clearer marmade. I also make lime marmalade, lemon marmalade and grapefruit marmalade. These recipes are from some very old cookbooks and I do not can. By just putting the marmalade and jam in washed jars and then put in an oven for 15 mins on low , I then put on a wax paper and put on the lid. As the jars cool they automatically seal themselves. I have used jams etc 3 years later and stiill good after being stored in cool dark place.

I'm blessed to have the most prolific Meyer lemon tree on the planet. It yields TEN 5-gallon buckets full, TWICE a year! I love them and use them for all the things, curd, cakes, muffins, vinegar, zest, juice, ice cubes, etc., and so do all my family and friends. I'm with my lemons like the gardener trying to pawn his zucchini off on everyone. Nobody leaves without taking lemons! 😅

@melissawheeler647

Haha, just got done preserving 20lbs of Meyer lemons and 20lbs of Cara Cara oranges. Ended up making lemon curd, orange curd, 3 fruit marmalade (i added a couple of grapefruit), the honey lemonade concentrate, lemon zest, orange zest, frozen lemon juice and orange juice, a Cara Cara oranges cake, and frozen lemon wedges for cooking.

@user-mc3tp5sd2z

Becky, I hate to tell you because now you’ll make it more often, but I see you have a vitamix. You can make curd start to finish (and start is picking off trees) in 5 mins. Toss everything in and whip till 170 degrees F and it’s done. Makes for a quick and hostesses gift. It’s my favorite use for my vitamix.

@annhatch1219

You need anti-fatigue mats for when you're standing there long periods of time. Think about your feet now before they have difficulties.

@miriammarquez4061

Congratulations for your big project! Maybe a suggestion will be not to put the hot liquids into those plastic jars.

@katherinez9654

You can take all of the peel, freeze dry it all and powder it. It’s wonderful. Then you save the pith that has so many healthy benefits for your arteries and veins. I then juice the lemons. I’m 63 and when I was growing up my mom used to make orange marmalade, sometimes with pineapple. You making it makes me be able to even smell it. 🤗

@malamanoa6144

Aloha Becky, I have zested 1000s of citrus by hand in baking school and working in restaurants and if you’re going to use the Microplane to zest, which is my favorite way as well, here is a tip for getting the most zest off the citrus:

@mariesunga8942

Not only do learn so much from Becky's videos, the comments have so many great tips and ideas! Way to go everyone. I appreciate all of you on here too! ❤

@musicmomma39

I love how you are so conscious to use use every part of whatever you are preserving

@susanhamilton1707

I think I would want 12 lemon loaves!! One for now and 11 in the freezer, give me a years supply! Then I would also need more to gift. I love lemon cake

@marthalorden8498

Orange marmalade is amazing. This is a great recipe and you make it look so easy. I am a cookbook reviewer, and I reviewed the original Ball canning cookbook (one of your favorites) for Publishers Weekly trade magazine and gave it a BIG thumbs up. It is truly the canning bible. Love your ambition, Becky. We are all so delighted that this video appeared so quickly as you promised.

@chris109

One other thing…You might also like to grow a kumquat tree in your greenhouse. I made marmalade with kumquats. Delicious!

@laurieboadway2588

Marmalade - coming from a British background where marmalade is an essential on toast/bread with tea, the best oranges to use are called Seville oranges - in Canada where I am, they are available for a 3 week period in February! You still get a tart taste, but not bitter!! They're the best orange to use.

@angeladavison9323

Hi Becky, if you get a cocktail stick and pick holes in the pound cakes the syrup will soak more into the cake

@sandrab4394

I have to say, for all the gardening, canning, freezing, cooking, animal raising, butchering, plucking, harvesting, planting and food preservation I have done, this was incredibly impressive! I have never done citrus. Oh, I have done lemon curd and orange marmalade, but never anything like this. Becky, you continue to amaze me and to teach me! And inspire me!!!
