About lemon marmalade

Lemon marmalade is a citrus preserve built from the fruit's peel and juice. This classic version relies only on lemons, sugar and water for its natural set.

Its flavour is vividly sweet-tart, with fragrant lemon oils and a measured peel bitterness balancing the sugar.

The preserve is glossy and golden-yellow, with fine tender ribbons of peel suspended in a softly gelled syrup.
