Title: Pear marmalade
 Categories: Preserves
      Yield: 1 Servings
 
     10 lb Pears
     10 lb Sugar
      6    Oranges
      3    Lemons
           Chopped walnuts & maraschino
           Cherries (if desired)
 
  Cut pears in medium-sized pieces, mix with sugar and let stand till
  some juice forms.  Boil down till it starts to thicken slightly.
  Squeeze juice from oranges and lemons. Slice oranges and lemon skins
  thinly or put through grinder.  Steam skins till tender and add to
  pears along with juice.  Continue boiling till of desired thickness.
  (Marmalade is more apt to stick during this second boiling so boil
  pears away sufficiently before adding oranges and lemons.) Add
  chopped walnuts and cherries just before sealing if desired. Source:
