This is a technique to make a base mixture of citrus marmalade, when you have a larger quantity and may not be able to process it all the same day. I am using Rangpur limes here, but I have also done this with Meyer lemons and a mixture of citrus. No
•
Whatever mix you are doing, always include at least 1 cup of sliced lemons to each 7 cups of other citrus. Even with these tart Rangpurs, the lemons round out the acidity in a pleasant way, and will add necessary tartness to sweeter mixtures.

The fruit preparation can be summed up in 4 steps.
•
1. Soak and Scrub – twice is nice
•
2. Tip and Halve- cut a thin slice off each end, cut in half lengthwise
•
3. Core and Seed – cut the center core out in a little triangle, run your finger along the groove to remove seeds
•
4. Quarter, Slice and Measure – cut halves into lengthwise quarters, thinly slice and put in measuring cup
