2 cups diced ripe pineapple
2 cups diced ripe papaya
3-4 cups sugar (taste and add all 4 if necessary)
1 tablespoon lemon zest (in thin strips)
1 /3 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon grated ginger
pinch salt
tablespoon honey
Peel and cube the pineapple and papaya and set aside. Then using a pairing knife, cut off some of the rind off the lemons and slice them thinly (Chiffonade). You’ll also need to squeeze the lemons as we’ll need this citrus kick in the marmalade.
Place a wide pan on a medium flame and add all the ingredients and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to a simmer (leave the pan uncovered) and have it go for about 30 minutes. The goal is to make everything tender, to the point where it starts to break apart.
It will go thick and sticky (that’s what we want) and you can certainly control the texture. If you want it more runny, you can cook it for a bit less time and if you want it thick, using the back of your spoon, mash down on the pieces of fruit. If you’re an exact cook time type of person, you want to achieve 224ยบ degrees Fahrenheit on a candy thermometer.
Pour into a sterilized glass jar, store and enjoy.
