Seville orange<br />
marmalade<br />
Marmalade is a fruit preserve, made from the peel of citrus<br />
fruits, sugar, and water. The traditional citrus fruit for marmalade<br />
production is the "Seville orange" from Spain, Citrus aurantium var.<br />
aurantium, thus called because it was originally only made in Seville<br />
in Spain; it is higher in pectin than sweet oranges, and therefore gives<br />
a good set. The peel has a distinctive bitter taste which it imparts to<br />
the marmalade. Marmalade can be made from lemons, limes,<br />
grapefruits, sweet oranges or any combination thereof. For example,<br />
California-style marmalade is made from the peel of sweet oranges<br />
and consequently lacks the bitter taste of Spanish style marmalade.<br />
In languages other than English, marmalade can mean preserves<br />
made with fruit other than citrus . For example, in Spanish all<br />
preserves are known generically as mermelada ( There is no<br />
distinction made between jam, jelly, preserves or marmalade ) .
