Title: Pear Marmalade
Categories: Preserves
Yield: 1 Servings

10 lb Pears
10 lb Sugar
6 Oranges
3 Lemons
Chopped walnuts & maraschino
Cherries (if desired)

Cut pears in medium-sized pieces, mix with sugar and
let stand till some juice forms. Boil down till it
starts to thicken slightly. Squeeze juice from
oranges and lemons. Slice oranges and lemon skins
thinly or put through grinder. Steam skins till
tender and add to pears along with juice. Continue
boiling till of desired thickness. (Marmalade is more
apt to stick during this second boiling so boil pears
away sufficiently before adding oranges and lemons.)
Add chopped walnuts and cherries just before sealing
if desired. Source: Heritage Recipes ch.
