Everything is born of a craving for Lemon Marmalade. When I take these
spasm usually start looking for some good recipes on the Web and then, if I find anything, try the many cookbooks that I keep in the various shelves.
This time, however, I was taken by laziness and I have traveled a different path. I took the last mail sender that I had arrived and I wrote:
" Martina , is you have to give me a recipe as it should be a Lemon Marmalade?"
... I had not ever done!
Martina has done its utmost in a very careful search through websites and books and almost every hour I updated on the results, "Uncle try this, try this other uncle, Uncle look what I found" and so on.
Until they came to this !

The first thing that struck me is the "weighting" of the ingredients, or perhaps I should say the "volume".
And yes, because we are not talking grams or ounces, but the volume!!
And the thing I enjoyed a lot, since the volumes are well taken eye and measured scientifically!
Hurrah, I said! This recipe for me!
And so, after choosing 3 doc citrus (orange, grapefruit and lemon), washed well and sliced \u200b\u200bthin thin with the skin into a bowl, eye I measured the volume they occupied. Yes, eye !
So let '... eye (and cross) or less ... ... more citrus coming here. There. We do a "sign in the mind" . I empty it into a larger bowl, get the smaller bowl and fill with water up to "sign in the mind" . OK?
Now the water in the bowl to where I had put the largest citrus fruit, cover with a plate and leave it there for 24 hours.

Ogni tanto giro giusto per controllare che non si appiccichi.
Qui la scelta del Momento X è cruciale: se togliete dal fuoco troppo tardi, il risultato finale sarà una melassa durissima, che vi si incolla ai denti peggio dell'attack! Se togliete troppo presto, il risultato sarà un brodo di agrumi, saporito ma non proprio spalmabile. La regola del piattino vale fino ad un certo punto.
Diciamo che anche qui dovreste fare a occhio ! Per dare un termine orientativo sui tempi, diciamo che 35-40 minuti dovrebbero essere ottimali. Non vi preoccupate se all'apparenza il composto sembra liquido.
In frigo tende comunque a solidificarsi maggiormente, per cui se spegnete la fiamma quando il composto è già bello addensato....prenotatevi una visita dal dentista!
