How to Make Quick Grapefruit Marmalade
- Wash and thoroughly scrub 1 large grapefruit.
- Using a vegetable peeler, remove the zest from the grapefruit, avoiding the white pith as much as possible. Finely chop the zest.
- Cut the grapefruit in half and juice it. You should get approximately 1 cup of juice.
- Combine the grapefruit juice, zest, and 1 ½ cups of sugar in a medium saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the marmalade thickens and reaches setting point (a small amount placed on a chilled plate should wrinkle when pushed with a finger). Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Skim off any foam that has formed on the surface.
- Ladle the hot marmalade into a sterilized jar, leaving about ½ inch of headspace.
- Let the marmalade cool completely before sealing the jar and refrigerating. Enjoy within 2-3 weeks for best flavor.
