To Make Orange Marmalade

Take six Oranges, grate two of the Rinds of them upon a Grater, then cut them all, and pick out the Flesh from the Skins and Seeds; put to it the grated Rind, and about half a Pint of Pippin Jelly; take the same Weight of Sugar as you have of this Meat so mingled; boil your Sugar till it blows very strong; then put in the Meat, and boil all very quick till it becomes a Jelly, which you will find by dipping the Scummer, and holding it up to drain; if it be a Jelly, it will break from the Scummer in Flakes; if not, it will run off in little Streams: When it is a good Jelly, put it into your Glasses or Pots.

Note, If you find this Composition too sweet, you may in the boiling add more Juice of Oranges; the different Quickness they have, makes it difficult to prescribe.
