How to Make Ll's Meyer Lemon Ginger Marmalade

  1. Wash and zest the Meyer lemons, reserving the zest. Juice the lemons, measuring out 4 cups of juice.
  2. Finely grate the ginger. You should aim for about 1/4 cup of grated ginger.
  3. Combine the lemon juice, lemon zest, ginger, sugar, and pectin in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan.
  4. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 100-105 minutes, or until the marmalade reaches setting point (a small amount placed on a chilled plate wrinkles when pushed with a finger). Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
  6. Remove from heat and skim off any foam.
  7. Ladle the hot marmalade into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/4 inch headspace.
  8. Wipe the jar rims clean, seal, and process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (adjust processing time based on altitude).
  9. Let the jars cool completely. You should hear a 'pop' sound as the jars seal.
