Sonnys Marmalade Recipes

Steps:

• For the sauce: Add the marmalade, onions, brown sugar, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, jalapeños, garlic, orange zest, a pinch of salt and plenty of coarse ground black pepper to a medium pot on medium-high. Bring to a simmer and cook until slightly reduced and thickened. Remove from the heat and divide as follows: for the basting liquid, pour 1/4th of the sauce into a medium bowl and whisk in the orange juice. Pour the remaining sauce into a medium bowl to use as the glazing liquid.
• For the ribs: Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Sprinkle the ribs generously on all sides with salt and pepper and place on a rimmed baking sheet, bone-side down. Brush lightly all over with the basting liquid. Pour all the remaining basting liquid into the bottom of the baking sheet and cover tightly with aluminum foil. Cook 3 to 5 hours, basting with the liquid every hour and re-covering tightly each time. After 3 hours, begin checking the ribs for doneness by gently pulling at the middle bone to see if it will release easily from the meat. The ribs are also done with about a 1/2-inch of the bone showing on the ends, or a pull at the middle bone feels like it will release the meat.
• Once the ribs are cooked remove the aluminum foil and brush the ribs with the reserved sauce. Adjust the rack to the bottom of the oven, turn the broiler on high and cook the ribs until the glaze caramelizes, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the ribs from the oven onto a cutting board, tent with aluminum foil and let rest for 10 minutes. Cut into 1- or 2-bone slices and serve with orange wedges.

Steps:

• Saute the onion in hot oil in skillet over medium high heat with the salt, pepper, and cayenne, cook stirring often, for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until the onions are golden. Add the sugar and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the vinegar and parsley and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat, cool and serve.
• Can be stored in airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Cut the oranges and lemons in half crosswise, then into very thin half-moon slices. (If you have a mandoline, this will be quite fast.) Discard any seeds. Place the sliced fruit and their juices into a stainless-steel pot. Add 8 cups water and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring often. Remove from the heat and stir in the sugar until it dissolves. Cover and allow to stand overnight at room temperature.
• The next day, bring the mixture back to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 2 hours. Turn the heat up to medium and boil gently, stirring often, for another 30 minutes. Skim off any foam that forms on the top. Cook the marmalade until it reaches 220 degrees F on a candy thermometer. If you want to be doubly sure it's ready, place a small amount on a plate and refrigerate it until it's cool but not cold. If it's firm -- neither runny nor too hard -- it's done. It will be a golden orange color. (If the marmalade is runny, continue cooking it and if it's too hard, add more water.)
• Pour the marmalade into clean, hot Mason jars; wipe the rims thoroughly with a clean damp paper towel, and seal with the lids. Store in the pantry for up to a year.

Steps:

• For the chops: In a bowl, mix together the chili powder, salt, pepper, hot sauce and orange zest. Rub the mixture on all sides of the lamb chops. Place on a plate or baking sheet in a single layer and drizzle with some of the olive oil. Flip the chops and drizzle some on the other side. Rest at room temperature for 2 hours.
• Heat a grill to medium high. Place the chops over direct heat and grill just 1 to 2 minutes on one side. Flip, grilling just 1 to 2 minutes on the other side. Remove to a clean baking sheet and cover with aluminum foil.
• For the chutney: Place the orange sections in a large bowl. Squeeze the juice from the remaining membranes and flesh into a separate medium bowl. Add the marmalade, parsley, Worcestershire, hot sauce and scallion to the juice. Taste and season the sauce with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Pour over the orange sections in the large bowl and gently toss to coat. Serve over the rested lamb chops.

Steps:

• Place a rack in center of oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Rub a baking sheet lightly with butter. Sift dry ingredients into a large bowl, pouring back into bowl any remaining bits of grain or other ingredients in sifter.
• Cut butter into 1/2-inch piecesand add to dry mixture. Rub butterbetween your fingers, breaking itinto smaller bits. Continue rubbinguntil pieces range from rice grainto flattened pea size. The faster youdo this, the more solid the butterwill remain, which is important forthe success of the recipe.
• In a small bowl, whisk togetherbuttermilk and egg until thoroughlycombined. Scrape buttermilk andegg into dry mixture and mix untilbarely combined.
• Use a pastry scraper or a spatula to transfer dough to a well-floured surface. If dough is too sticky to handle, dust it with flour and fold it together a few times. Divide dough into 2 pieces. Flour your hands and pat each piece of dough into a disk about 3/4 inch thick and 7 inches in diameter.
• Cover one disk with marmalade.Top with other disk andpress down gently so that doughsettles into marmalade. Brushdough lightly with melted butterand sprinkle with sugar.
• Use asharp knife to slice circle into8 triangular wedges on bakingsheet, leaving a few inchesbetween them. Chill until firm,about 30 minutes.
• Bake for 22 to 26 minutes,rotating sheets halfway through.Scones are ready when tops aregolden brown and some marmaladehas bubbled over. To keepscones from sticking to pan, slidea thin spatula underneath themwhile they're still warm and transferto a baking rack. Scones arebest eaten warm from oven or laterthat same day.
