Canning - How To Make Homemade Pear Marmalade
When it comes to home canning, one of the easiest recipes you can make is some type of fruit marmalade and this pear marmalade recipe is no exception.
You will need your basic home canning supplies: water bath canner, half-pint or pint-sized mason jars, seals and rings, jar lifter, ladle, silicone nonstick spatula and a funnel.
If you enjoy giving homemade food gifts during the holiday season, this is a nice one to make and give as a gift. If you seal your mason jars correctly, this marmalade should last for up to 1 year.
Pear Marmalade Recipe
4 lbs. fresh pears
8 cups granulated sugar
2 cups tap water
4 fresh oranges
1 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated orange rind
Wash and remove stems and leaves from pears. Peel off the skins and chop the flesh up into small pieces. Peel the skin off the oranges and discard the seeds and membranes. Reserve one small piece of the orange rind and finely grate it until you have 1 1/2 teaspoons of finely grated orange rind. Chop the flesh of the oranges into small pieces.
In a large Stock Pot, combine all of the above ingredients and bring to a rapid boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for approximately 45 minutes or until the mixture thickens. You will need to stir the mixture every 8 to 10 minutes using a nonstick Silicone Spatula to keep it from sticking to the pot.
Wash and clean your half-pint or pint-sized mason jars. You will want to warm up your jars using your oven set at 200 degrees F. Remove jars from the oven, one at a time. Ladle the hot mixture into clean warm jars leaving a 1/2" head space. Wipe the jar rim clean with a soft cotton towel. Place ring and seal onto the jar.
Process jars in your water bath canner for 10 minutes or according to manufacturers instructions.
This recipe will make approximately 4 to 5 half-pint jars of marmalade.

can i use a silicone mold / pan for a rice krispie cake?
i was just wondering if anyone has used a silicone mold/pan to make a rice krispie cake? can i just put the mixture in the pan or do i need to spray it with nonstick spray first?
The recipe tells you to butter the pan so I would butter it as marshmallow's tend to stick to everything, including silicone! You can use it though. Making a cake out of rice krispy treats, great idea! Sounds like a fun way to change up dessert!
