Memorable Marmalades and Unruly Jams

Posted on November 28, 2013 by Geneviève Blanchet

The blood oranges, cranberries and cardamom melts together giving a dazzling hue to this delicious marmalade. At Le Meadow’s Pantry this is our antidote to a gaunt rainy week.

There are many uses for this delightful marmalade.. I like to have it on fresh bread with butter… it also pairs well with cheeses and, added to a gin cocktail for a pleasant evening…..

Cocktail Gin with Polpa Rossa Marmalade :

2 tablespoons polpa rossa marmalade

60 ml Gin

1-2 tablespoons Campari

Sparkling water

Pour all ingredients in a shaker

Add a handful of ice cubes

Mix well

Pour into 4 glasses

Add ice cubes and sparkling water

Gin with Blood Orange and Cranberry Marmalade Cocktail

This week I am also making more of the banana chocolate jam…A naughty jam for Christmas….

This is where you will find our memorable marmalades and unruly jams this week-end…
