Homemade Canned Mandarin Oranges Recipe: Bringing Summer to Your Pantry

Ingredients:

• 1kg peeled mandarin oranges
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 3/8 cups sugar 

Instructions:

1. Prepare Your Canner: To maintain the integrity of your preserves, ensure your canner is set up and your jars and lids are sterilized.
2. Peel Your Fruit: Carefully peel the mandarin oranges, removing all the white pith to avoid bitterness in your canned fruits.
3. Make the Syrup: In a saucepan, combine water and sugar. Heat until the sugar is completely dissolved, then remove from heat, keeping the syrup warm without boiling.
4. Pack the Fruit: Place the peeled mandarin segments into your sterilized jars. Pour the warm syrup over them, leaving a 1/2 inch of headspace.
5. Seal and Process: Secure the sterilized lids and rings onto the jars. Process them in a water bath canner for 10 minutes, submerging them in at least an inch of water.
6. Cool and Check Seals: Allow the jars to cool for 12-24 hours. Check that the seals are correctly sealed, label the jars, and store them in a cool, dark place.

With your homemade canned mandarin oranges safely stored away, you can enjoy summer's bright, citrusy flavour no matter the season. Whether added to salads or desserts or enjoyed straight from the jar, these delightful treats are sure to brighten any meal and boost your taste buds with their vibrant zest.
