Lime Marmelade
4 limes
1/8 tsp. baking soda
1 3/4 oz. powder pectin
5 c. sugar
Green food coloring (optional)
Wash limes, cut in quarters lengthwise, and scrap out pulp and juice into large saucepan. Discard white membrane between sections. Simmer lime rinds with the soda and water to cover 20 minutes. Drain and cool. Scrape or cut all of the white part from rind. Cut peel lengthwise in very thin slices with sharp knife. Add peel, 3 cups water and the pectin to pulp and juice in saucepan. Over high heat, bring to hard boil, stirring occasionally. Add sugar all at once, bring to full rolling boil and boil hard, stirring, 1 minute. Remove from heat and add a little green food coloring, if desired. Let mixture set 7 minutes, skimming foam periodically. Pour into hot sterilized jars and seal. Makes 6 cups.
