    This is just another example of Safeway going down hill. They have stopped carrying the Safeway Select version of preserves, including
    the orange marmalade that I (and Nancy) like. Gail was out of
    strawberry and so got a jar of their ordinary preserves. It was not nearly as good. The store manager says that they are replacing the
    Select with something else, but we have not yet seen nor tasted it.

    That's indeed sad.... Hopefully the replacement will be at least as
    good, but that certainly isn't guaranteed.... Fortunately, my supply
    will last a while.... ;)

    We looked when we were there a few days ago. Their replacement for the

    both take a pass on trying that.

    pricey example was a "bulk buy" (3 containers) @ 30c/oz to a Trappist

    Title: Seville Orange Marmalade
    Categories: Citrus, Condiments, Spreads
    Yield: 6 pounds

    2 lb Seville oranges
    1 Lemon, juice only
    4 lb Granulated sugar; warmed
    77 oz (4 UK pints) water

    MMMMM---------------SPECIAL EQUIPMENT--------------------------------
    6 (1 lb/450g) jars
    1 (9") square of muslin
    String
    3 (to 4) tea-plates

    Begin by measuring the water into a preserving pan, then
    cut the lemon and oranges in half and squeeze the juice
    out of them. Add the juice to the water, and place the
    pips and any bits of pith that cling to the squeezer on
    the square of muslin (laid over a dish or cereal bowl
    first). Now cut the orange peel into quarters with a
    sharp knife, and then cut each quarter into thinnish
    shreds. As you cut add the shreds to the water and any
    pips or spare pith you come across should go onto the
    muslin. Remember that the pith contains a lot of pectin
    so don't discard any.

    Now tie the pips up loosely in the muslin to form a
    little bag, and tie this onto the handle of the pan so
    that the bag is suspended in the water. Then bring the
    liquid up to simmering point, and simmer gently,
    uncovered, for 2 hours or thereabouts until the peel is
    completely soft-test a piece carefully by pressing it
    between your finger and thumb. At this point pop the
    tea-plates into the freezing compartment of the fridge.

    Next remove the bag of pips and leave it to cool on a
    saucer. Then pour the sugar into the pan and stir it now
    and then over a low heat, until all the crystals have
    melted (check this carefully, it’s important). Now
    increase the heat to very high, and squeeze the bag of
    pips over the pan to extract all of the sticky,
    jelly-like substance that contains the pectin. As you
    squeeze you'll see it ooze out. You can do this by
    placing the bag between two saucers or using your hands.
    Then stir or whisk it into the rest.

    As soon as the mixture reaches a really fast boil, start
    timing. Then after 15 minutes spoon a little of the
    marmalade onto one of the cold plates from the fridge,
    and let it cool back in the fridge. You can tell *when
    it has cooled* if you have a set by pushing the mixture
    with your little finger: if it has a really crinkly
    skin, it is set. If not, continue to boil the marmalade
    and give it the same test at about 10-minute intervals
    until it does set.

    After that remove the pan from the heat (if there’s a
    lot of scum, most of it can be dispersed by stirring in
    half a teaspoon of butter, and the rest can be spooned
    off). Leave the marmalade to settle for 20 minutes. In
    the meantime the jars (washed, rinsed and dried first)
    should be heated in a moderate oven for 5 minutes. Pour
    the marmalade, with the aid of a funnel or a ladle, into
    the jars and cover with waxed discs and seal while still
    hot. Label the jars when quite cold.

    Title: Phillippine Lumpia Shanghai
    Categories: Appetizer, Oriental
    Yield: 30 Servings

    3 c Oil
    2 Cloves garlic, minced
    1/2 lb Lean pork, ground
    1/2 lb Shrimp, shelled, deveined,
    Minced
    3/4 c Minced water chestnuts
    2 Carrots, minced
    1 c Minced celery
    1/2 c Scallions, finely cut
    2 tb Soy sauce
    1 ts Salt (optional)
    1/2 ts Black pepper
    Lumpia or spring roll
    Wrappers, 8 inches in
    Diameter (recipe below)
    Sweet & Sour Sauce (recipe
    Below)

    In a wok or pan, heat 2 Tb oil. Add garlic & stir until fragrant,
    about 5 secs. Add the pork & shrimp & stir-fry for 1 min. Add the
    water chestnuts, carrots, celery, and scallions. Stir-fry for about 2
    mins or until the vegetables are tender but still crunchy. Add the
    soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir. Remove from heat. Drain excess
    moisture from pan.

    To assemble the lumpia, place about 1/3 cup of the filling on the
    lower third of the wrapper. Fold the portion of the wrapper nearest
    you over the filling until just covered. Turn the wrapper again to
    enclose the filling securely. Moisten the edges of the wrapper with
    water or a mixture of cornstarch and water. Fold over the corners and
    press dwn firmly to seal making an envelope. Moisten the flap of the
    envelope with water and turn, rolling firmly into a 1 inch cylinder.
    Seal firmly. Set aside, seam side
    down. Repeat until all the filling has been used.

    Heat oil in a wok to 375 F. Place 4-5 lumpia at a time in the hot oil.
    Deep-
    fry until crisp and golden. Remove with a skimmer and drain on paper
    towels. Serve hot with sweet and sour sauce.

    We looked when we were there a few days ago. Their replacement for
    the Select preserves has a "Sweet orange marmalade". I think that
    we will both take a pass on trying that.
    I guess so.... sigh... Maybe some day we'll come across Seville orange
    marmalade somewhere....

    If you do - hang on to your wallet. Just looked at Amazon. The least pricey example was a "bulk buy" (3 containers) @ 30c/oz to a Trappist (Brand) All-Natural @ $1.19/oz.

    I'd not likely buy on Amazon anyway.... just look around to see if any
    place carried it....

    You can, of course, always make your own. Bv)=

    Presuming that one can find Seville oranges in the first place.... :)

    My web search tonight turned up a Trader Joe's SOM, but since I have
    not been inside a Trader Joe's for several decades, I cannot verify
    this.

    There's a Trader Joe's locally that I might stop by, just for the
    jollies.... if the weather isn't too bad tomorrow, I might even do it on
    my way home from the hygenist (the office is nearby)....

    What I can say is that Amazon wants to sell it at a pretty
    outlandish price, well in excess ot $1 per ounce.

    I'll not be buying it there, for sure.... :)

    So.... I did stop by yesterday, and indeed they do have the Seville marmalade... I bought one there, $3.49 for a 17.5 ounce jar... not that
    I needed it yet, but it made it easier to remember details... ;)
