Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

5 Lemons 12 c Water
1 Grapefruit 8 c Sugar (4 pounds)

Makes about 10 half-pints. Wash and peel the lemons thinly; remove the

reserve the pulp. Simmer the peel with 2 cups of the water in a
covered preserving kettle for about 1 hour, or until tender. Drain
the liquid from the lemon shreds and set both aside. Wash the

Measure the juice into the preserving kettle and add 1 cup of sugar
for each cup of juice. Add the reserved lemon shreds and over high
heat, boil hard for about 15 minutes until a jelly thermometer read
