There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Marmalade - To Frankenstein - Untested


0 - This is a YouTube for marmalade that made me go 'hmmm', so I want to find marmalade recipes to beef up the starting point for the recipe.

You can use any citrus to make this. Also nice with a little diced candied ginger added.
Collect peels by freezing until you have enough. Cut the rinds finely into Julienne strips and then finely  dice them.
Boil for 10 minutes, change water and soak them for 6 hours to remove the bitterness.
Drain and transfer the peel into a saucepan.
Add sugar. Lemon juice and water simmer. Simmer over lowest heat for 1 hour or until the mixture thickens.
