Mixing flavors to create new and exciting recipes is what canning and cooking are all about for me. The flavor combination of lemon marmalade and persimmon butter was a huge success!

The creamy texture of persimmons and the and tartness of Meyer lemons meld together to create a wow-za mouthful of flavors in this persimmon lemon marmalade recipe.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups peeled and chopped persimmons
  • 3 cups Meyer Lemons
  • 3 ½ cups sugar

Instructions
 

  • Clean the lemons and persimmons using cold water, rubbing gently with a clean cloth or soft food brush
  • Cut the lemons in half and juice, reserve juice
  • Using a very sharp knife, slice the lemons crosswise as thinly as possible to achieve a smoother, creamier marmalade. A time consuming effort but well worth the time, it really makes a big difference in the marmalade texture.
  • Peel persimmons and discard peels, cut persimmons into chunks
  • Add lemons to a large heavy bottom stock pot and cover them with cold water.
  • Bring to a boil until the lemon peel is tender, about 10-15 minutes.
  • Drain and rinse the peels thoroughly with cold water. Rinse out the pot too.
  • Return lemons to the pot, add chopped persimmons and 1 ½ cups water and bring to a boil
  • Stir in 3 ½ cups sugar
  • Reduce heat to simmer. Cook until mixture is thick and creamy, about 1 hour
  • Taste and add up to 1 ½ cups sugar to taste.
  • Stir in ½ cup reserved lemon juice
  • (freeze or can remaining juice after removing pips)
  • Remove marmalade from heat
  • Pips will turn a dark brown during cooking, remove as many as possible before packing jars
  • Pour hot marmalade into prepared jars leaving ¼ inch headspace, using a butter knife, remove air bubbles by sliding the blade around the jar edges
  • Wipe rims with clean towel and cover with lids and rims
  • Process in a hot water bath for 15 minutes
