Ingredients

• ✓ sugar
• ruby red grapefruit

Instructions

1. 1 Inspect two 5-ounce jars for cracks and rings for rust, discarding any defective ones. Immerse in simmering water until marmalade is ready. Wash new, unused lids and rings in warm soapy water.
2. 2 Thoroughly wash and dry the grapefruits. Run a zester around 2 grapefruits to produce ribbons of zest. Set aside. Cut away thin strips of peel from the other two grapefruits with a sharp paring knife.
3. 3 Peel off all remaining outer white parts of the fruit and discard. Cut the grapefruits into wheels. Remove any seeds.
4. 4 Put grapefruit wheels and zest strips into a non-reactive saucepan. Add sugar and stir well to cover fruit. Heat over medium-high heat until bubbling, mixing constantly. Smash the heated fruit until it liquefies. Reduce heat to low and cook over a steady boil, stirring often. Remove and discard any persistent white froth that won't disappear after being stirred. Continue to cook for about 10 minutes until marmalade begins to coat the back of a spoon.
5. 5 Add zest ribbons and cook for 5 minutes more. Place a small amount of marmalade on a plate and put it in the freezer. Test the consistency after 3 minutes.
6. 6 Remove the marmalade from the heat when the freezer sample meets your desired consistency.
7. 7 Pack grapefruit jam into hot, sterilized jars, filling to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a clean knife or thin spatula around the insides of the jars to remove any air bubbles. Wipe rims with a moist paper towel to remove any residue. Top with lids and screw rings on tightly.
8. 8 Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars 2 inches apart into the boiling water using a holder. Pour in more boiling water to cover jars by at least 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, and process for 10 minutes.
9. 9 Remove the jars from the stockpot and let rest, several inches apart, for 24 hours. Press the center of each lid with a finger to ensure the lid does not move up or down. Remove the rings for storage and store in a cool, dark area.

Ingredients

• ✓ sugar
• strawberry
• pectin
• water

Instructions

1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
2. 2 Crush strawberries using a potato masher in a large bowl. (Alternatively, pulse strawberries in a food processor until just finely chopped but not pureed.) Drain strawberries through a fine mesh strainer; reserve juice for another use. Transfer 2 cups crushed strawberries to a large bowl (reserve any extra strawberries for another use); add sugar, and stir until evenly combined. Let stand at room temperature for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. 3 Meanwhile, stir pectin and water together in a small saucepan until combined. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; boil, stirring constantly, until a thick paste forms and pectin is fully dissolved, about 2 minutes.
4. 4 Stir boiling pectin-water mixture into strawberry mixture in large bowl; stir constantly for 3 minutes. To check if jam is set, coat back of a spoon with jam; run a finger through it. If jam remains separated, it is properly set. If jam runs back together, it is not set; stir until set, 3 more minutes. Pour into 2 sterilized pint-size jars or other storage containers, leaving a 1/2-inch space at the top to allow for expansion. Place tops on containers, and leave at room temperature for 24 hours.
5. 5 Place in refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving, or freeze until ready to use or up to 3 months. Enjoy!
