Orange Marmalade Take the clearest Seville oranges you can get, cut them in two, then take out all the pulp and juice into a basin, pick all the seeds and skins out of it, boil the rinds in hard water till they are tender, change the water 3 times while they are boiling, then pound them in a Marble Mortar, add to it the juice and pulp, and put them into a preserving pan, with double its weight of loaf sugar set it over a slow fire, boil it rather more than 1/2 an hour, then pat it into jars, with Brandy papers over them, keep them in a dry place. Mrs. Garnham Barbadoes Jumbles.
