Christmas Baking or cooking. 2022

[Esther Knapicius]

The marmalade orange season is on us and the house has smelled of oranges cooking for days as a year's worth of marmalade has been produced, plus a few to give away.

my favorite, marmalade. Have you ever used a scope of it when steaming up carrots. A spoon of marmalade and some butter on the carrots, yummy.

The smell has deep associations for me. My father made jams and pickles, each year he would make 60 lbs of marmalade, or so. One a week for the house and a few extra to give away. I have bread, or toast, and marmalade most mornings, but I have never tried it with carrots.
