I used 6 clementines, but only had one (luckily very large) lemon. I also added @ 2 tablespoons fresh grated ginger. I used all of the thinly sliced peel of the lemon and the peel of 2 clementines (I scraped the inside of the clementine peels with a veggie peeler to remove the pith.) I did use my food processor to break down the clementines and lemon. The final stage of boiling down took about 20 minutes. The result was a delicious marmalade that was not too sweet and not too tart. I ended up with 3 pint jars. I used it as a filling for stuffed French toast, on top of English Muffins and bagels, and turned it into a glaze for grilled chicken. Great recipe!
