Ingredients

  • 2 medium grapefruit
  • 2 limes
  • 4 large naval oranges, divided
  • 1/8 tsp. baking soda
  • 2 star anise
  • 1 (1-inch) piece ginger, smashed
  • 5 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 (3-ounce) pouch liquid pectin

Directions

  • 1. Peel grapefruit, limes, and 2 oranges; cut peels into thin strips. Reserve grapefruit and oranges for step 3 and limes for another use.

    2. Combine peels, baking soda, and 1 1/2 cups water in a large Dutch oven. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, until tender, 18 to 20 minutes.

    3. Peel remaining 2 oranges. Remove white pith from all oranges and grapefruit. Working over a bowl, section fruit, discarding seeds and membranes. Chop fruit and add to bowl.

    4. Add fruit and juice, star anise, and ginger to Dutch oven. Simmer, covered, 15 minutes. Add sugar and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Add pectin, return to a rolling boil, and boil, stirring constantly, until a candy thermometer reads 220°F, 10 to 15 minutes (mixture will foam after adding pectin). Remove from heat. Skim off any foam from surface. Discard star anise and ginger.

    5. Transfer marmalade to jars; cool completely. Top with lids and chill.
