    i made this for my dad for his birthday, he absolutely loved it, he finished the last jar last week. used navel oranges, as i was unable to get any sevilles, i think it just meant a sweeter marmalade, which dad didnt seem to mind. Everyone that tasted it loved it, and it looked absolutely gorgeous in the jar.

    John’s Sunshine Marmalade, Chunky, old-country style marmalade like a ray of sunshine first thing in the morning Added tang from the wee dram of Scots whisky! In January, when Seville oranges are available in our supermarkets, I make 6 – 10 batches of this marmalade Why? Because I have a large following of friends who think it’s the best orange marmalade they have eaten! I started making it a few years ago when my wife Peg attended a weekend-long quilting retreats and left me unsupervised The 2003 vintage produced 90 X 250 ml jars , i made this for my dad for his birthday, he absolutely loved it, he finished the last jar last week used navel oranges, as i was unable to get any sevilles, i think it just meant a sweeter marmalade, which dad didnt seem to mind Everyone that tasted it loved it, and it looked absolutely gorgeous in the jar , Chunky, old-country style marmalade like a ray of sunshine first thing in the morning Added tang from the wee dram of Scots whisky!
