Recipe for orange marmalade on agar-agar

  • oranges – 3 pieces;
  • agar-agar – 6 grams;
  • granulated sugar - ¾ cup.

We wash the fruits thoroughly, preferably with soap, and then squeeze the juice out of them in a way convenient for you. If you squeeze the juice through a juicer, you must first peel the peel. If you have a hand tool for squeezing juice as an assistant, then you do not need to peel the fruit. As a last resort, you can extract juice from an orange by rubbing the pieces through a metal sieve.

We measure the amount of juice. It should be 200 milliliters. You can drink the leftovers.

Dissolve sugar in approximately 120 milliliters of juice, and add agar-agar to the rest. It should stand for 5 - 10 minutes.

Boil orange syrup and add agar.We wait for the liquid to boil and keep it on the fire for 3 – 4 minutes.

After the juice cools to a temperature of 45 - 50 degrees, it is poured into silicone molds.

A huge advantage of using agar-agar is that it hardens very quickly even at room temperature, and when marmalade is rolled in sugar, the latter does not flow.

Gelatin marmalade

  • oranges – 4 pieces;
  • granulated sugar – 250 grams;
  • gelatin – 35 grams.

First of all, pour the gelatin with cold water and let it swell for half an hour.

Using a fine grater, remove the zest from two medium oranges. Squeeze the juice from the pulp of all the fruits.

Add sugar and zest to the juice. Boil everything together for 3 minutes over medium heat. After this, the liquid must be filtered through a fine sieve or gauze folded in several layers.

Pour the swollen gelatin into the hot mass and mix everything thoroughly.

Pour the marmalade mixture into molds and place in the refrigerator for 3 – 4 hours.

There is no need to sprinkle marmalade made with gelatin with sugar. Sugar grows and “flows.”

Orange marmalade with pectin and zest

  • oranges – 5 pieces;
  • sugar - 11 tablespoons with a small slide;
  • orange zest – 1.5 tablespoons;
  • apple pectin or pectin-based gelling powder – 1 sachet.

Add a tablespoon of sugar to the pectin and mix it.

Squeeze 400 milliliters of orange juice from fruit. If there is less juice, you can add regular water.

Mix juice with sugar and zest. Place on fire and boil for 3 minutes. Add pectin to the hot mass and boil the contents of the pan for 5 minutes.If the instructions for the gelling powder indicate a different sequence of actions, then follow its instructions.

The finished marmalade can be poured into portioned molds or onto one flat tray, greased with oil. After the mass “sets”, the layer is laid out on a plate and cut into small pieces.

Marmalade of oranges, carrots and apples on agar-agar

  • oranges – 2 pieces;
  • carrots – 1 piece;
  • apple – ½ piece;
  • granulated sugar – 100 grams;
  • agar-agar – 2 tablespoons;
  • cloves – 2 buds (optional).

Squeeze juice from all fruits and vegetables. You can't do this without the help of a juicer. We dilute agar-agar in approximately 100 milliliters of the resulting juice.

Combine all ingredients in one container and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes. Pour the slightly cooled mixture into a silicone mold and refrigerate. Placing marmalade in the refrigerator is not a necessary condition, since products prepared on agar-agar “freeze” well even at room temperature.

Orange-lemon marmalade

  • oranges – 5 pieces;
  • lemon – 2 pieces;
  • orange zest – 1 tablespoon;
  • lemon zest – 1 tablespoon;
  • granulated sugar – 400 grams;
  • gelatin – 50 grams.

We dilute gelatin in a small amount of water and give it time to swell.

Cut the zest from the fruit using a fine grater. Squeeze juice from lemons and oranges.

In a small saucepan, combine juice, zest and sugar. Heat the liquid over low heat until the granulated sugar crystals dissolve. After this, add gelatin and mix the syrup.

If you don’t want to feel pieces of zest in the marmalade, you can strain the mass before pouring it into molds.

Store gelatin marmalade made from oranges and lemons in the refrigerator.
