Ingredients
- Prestomarmellata, 1 bag
- carrots, 800 g
- oranges, 150 g
- lemons, 1-2
- whole cane sugar, 500 g
Method
Wash and scrape the carrots, cut them into small pieces, and place them in a saucepan. Add lemon juice and enough water to cover them.
Meanwhile, wash and cut the oranges into small pieces (leave the peel on if you like a slightly bitter note).
When the carrots are tender, remove from heat and blend them with an immersion blender. Add the oranges, grated lemon zest, and sugar.
Return to the heat and add the jam setting agent, stirring until the jam thickens (about 5–6 minutes).
Pour the hot jam into jars and let it cool. It will keep in the refrigerator for 3–4 days.
For longer storage, pour the hot jam into preheated jars, seal them tightly, and turn them upside down for about 10 minutes.
Serve the carrot and orange jam as an appetizer with toasted bread, cheese, melon, and cured meats, or as a dessert paired with aged cheese and fruit.
