Feijoa marmalade

Great with scones and cream for a different taste.

Makes two standard jars. 

Ingredients:

  • 1 kg feijoa peeled sliced
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 1 kg sugar
  • 1 lemon grated and juiced

Method:

Bring water and feijoa to the boil in a pan, and cook rapidly until the fruit is tender.

Add lemon juice, rind and sugar, and stir until the sugar has dissolved.

Boil rapidly until the jam will set when a small amount on a teaspoon is placed in a small amount of cold water (start testing after about 10 minutes of cooking time).

Bottle in sterilised jars when the mixture is cold.
