Made this orange marmalade today, very nice taste. Used this marmalade as a glaze with a hint of mustard on a meat loaf tonight. Wow super nice.

I use Chelsea Jam Sugar for jams all the time and find the recipe on the bag works perfectly. This marmalade recipe was less successful and I found that, even after 30 minutes boiling, I didn't get a good set and had to resort to using half a sachet of Hansells Jam Setting Mix, which worked perfectly. I should add that I substituted 200gms of the Jam Sugar with 200gms of Chelsea Dark Cane Sugar to make it more densely flavoured, like traditional English Oxford marmalade, and this may have affected the setting properties. I would be interested in your opinion.

I found that this recipe needed more water. After I cooked the fruit I needed to add more water and even then I didn't have quite enough to make a cup.Also, it took much longer than 4 minutes to come to setting temperature.Otherwise, a fairly simple and easy to follow recipe.

Method
Peel oranges (avoiding as much pith as possible) and slice the peel finely into 2cm lengths. Squeeze oranges and reserve juice.
Roughly chop remains of oranges and put into a muslin bag. Place bag and peel in saucepan with water. Boil until peel is soft (approximately 15 minutes).
Drain mixture through colander and reserve liquid and peel. Squeeze excess liquid from muslin bag and discard solids in bag.
Place reserved orange juice, peel and 1/2 cup of drained water from orange remains in a large, heavy-based 6 litre pot. Add sugar over low heat, stir until dissolved.
Add knob of butter, increase heat and bring to full boil (a boil that cannot be stirred down). Boil for 4 minutes.
Test a small amount of marmalade on a cold saucer (leave for 30 seconds, then push a spoon through it - if the marmalade is set, the surface should wrinkle). If the surface doesn't wrinkle, return to the boil for 1-2 minute intervals and test again. Boiling time for this recipe can be up to 10 minutes.
Stir to distribute peel and bottle in pre-sterilised jars.
