Lemon Marmalade Recipe

Recipe By Slurrp

Lemon marmalade is a tangy and sweet spread made from fresh lemons. It has a bright citrus flavor and a slightly bitter undertone. The marmalade is made by cooking lemon slices with sugar until they become soft and translucent. It can be enjoyed on toast, scones, or used as a filling for cakes and pastries. Lemon marmalade is also a great addition to marinades and dressings, adding a zesty kick to savory dishes. It can be stored in sterilized jars for several months.
