Pants to Brexit Marmalade

the world of marmalade turns darker

A lovely recipe to practice a bit of stockpiling. Use any citrus fruit still imported (1.5kgs) and boil until soft. Strain the juices (1.7l) through a pair of old pants (yes really) as if your knickers weren’t in a twist already. Get used to make doing and mending. Chop into small strands, slowly, rhythmically but alas not to Radio 4. A bit of Rachmaninoff maybe? Definitely not Holst.

Oh and there is no Plan B for this recipe btw. Plan B is Plan A.

Add 1.5kgs sugar and a bit of treacle. Boil (as in watching frogs) vigorously until setting point. Add whisky or a beverage from our EU friends. I used Romanian “tuica”.
