Homemade Orange Marmalade

Homemade Orange Marmalade

Wash the oranges making sure to scrub them really well.  The whole thing will be going into the jelly, so you want it to be super clean.Cut the oranges in to thin slices (about 1/8 inch thick).  Then cut the slices into quarters.Combine the oranges, lemon juice and water into the stock pot.  Set over high heat until it starts to boil.  This will take about 10 minutes.  When the liquid starts to boil reduce the heat to a fast simmer and cook 40 minutes, stirring frequently.  You want to fruit to be very tender.During the last 10 minutes of the simmer process, place the lids in a pot of water and bring them to a boil.  Once boiling, keep them warm over medium heat.  In your canning pot fill the jars half way with water.  Add 3 or so inches of water to the canning pot and bring the water to a boil.  Once boiling, keep hot over medium to high heat.
