Product Information

In support of their Dundee facility, by the early 1860’s the company was also operating another facility in the Channel Islands at St. Peter Port, Guernsey. Under the direction of Alexander’s brother William, the Channel Island facilities accounted for one-third of Keiller’s yearly 1,000 ton production during the 1860’s and 1870’s. James Senior died and the business was then run by his second wife Margaret, her son Alexander (1822-1877) having not yet attained his maturity.

Since 1979, the EU directive 79/693/CEE defines marmalade as a jam made from citrus fruits. The directive was replaced on 20 December 2001 by the ruling 32001L0113. [21] The translated versions of this document keep the English definition of "marmalade" as referring to citrus fruits, even if the other languages use the corresponding word normally in the broader sense of a "jam".

Baba’s Doner Pie is the latest addition to the menu at Clark’s, a family bakery that opened in 1950 turned 24-hour takeaway. “Dundee is a growing university city — we had to come up with pies for a younger crowd,” says Jonathon Clark, a third-generation baker who took over the family business from his father in 2000. Since then, Jonathon and his team of bakers have created dozens of hangover-inspired pie creations, including the NYC Pie (pastrami, onions, peppers, gherkins, mustard, white sauce and mozzarella and chili cheese), and the Breakfast Pie (bacon, beans, Lorne sausage, haggis and a tattie scone). According to Jonathon, Dundee’s first 24-hour bakery now sells around 5,000 pies a week. Now tie up all the flesh and pips in the muslin and tie it very tightly with string. Leave excess string so you can tie it on to the handle of the pot, making it easier to remove later. Now put some saucers or small plates in the freezer for testing the marmalade later on. Here’s another advertisement, this one from 1886, that features both Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce and Dundee Marmalade among other products touted by John Duncan’s Sons. Paddington Bear is known for his liking of marmalade, particularly in sandwiches, and kept it in his briefcase wherever he went. [28] Paddington Bear is now used on the label of the smaller peel ("shred") and clearer/milder Robertson's "Golden Shred" marmalade, in place of the previous icon, " Golliwog", which is considered racially offensive. The 2014 movie Paddington led to a slight increase in marmalade sales in the UK. [29]

Marmalade first appeared in the English language in 1480, borrowed from French marmelade which, in turn, came from the Galician-Portuguese word marmelada. According to José Pedro Machado's Dicionário Etimológico da Língua Portuguesa, [10] the oldest known document where this Portuguese word is to be found is Gil Vicente's play Comédia de Rubena, written in 1521: As the above story states, the Silvertown facility survived the fire there as well and subsequently, a June 8, 1914 story in “The Times” of London described the two operations like this: In Jane Austen's 1811 novel Sense and Sensibility an over-indulgent mother feeds apricot marmalade to her fussy three-year-old child who has been slightly scratched by a pin in the mother's hair. [30]The Canadian Food and Drug Regulations (C.R.C., c. 870) specify that pineapple or fig marmalade must be of jelly-like consistency, achieved by boiling the pulp of juice of the fruit with water, and a sweetening ingredient. Pineapple or fig marmalade should contain at least 45% of the named fruit. [20] European regulation [ edit ]

The Romans learned from the Greeks that quinces slowly cooked with honey would "set" when cool. The Apicius gives a recipe for preserving whole quinces, stems and leaves attached, in a bath of honey diluted with defrutum—Roman marmalade. Preserves of quince and lemon appear—along with rose, apple, plum and pear—in the Book of ceremonies of the Byzantine Emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogennetos. [2] They offered for sale a general assortment of wines, teas and groceries selected with care expressly for families. James and Janet Keiller are buried in the Howff Cemetery in central Dundee. The grave lies very close to the south-west corner. John Mitchell Keiller lies in the Western Cemetery, Dundee. The building that housed Keiller’s original 2 Castle Street retail store in Dundee remains to this day. The modern version below is courtesy of Google Earth. The rebuilt factory, described like this in a 1907 feature, had all the bells and whistles of the day.Then remove the pips and add the chopped fruit and preserved juice, boiling this to reduce by a third.

Spain grows approximately 15,000 tonnes of Seville oranges every year to meet this demand. Funnily enough, they are not really eaten in Spain. You are more likely to find these oranges on the trees that line the pavements and parks, rather than in a market. Listed Exhibitor - British Industries Fair.

Seville orange marmalade

When the sugar is fully dissolved turn the heat up as high as it will go. As soon as the mixture reaches a rolling boil, boil it hard for 15 minutes. Stir it occasionally to make sure it doesn’t catch at the bottom. Remove the scum as you go. It is important to skim so you have a really clear jelly. It should set after roughly 15 minutes hard boiling. You can test it by putting a little of the jelly on to a plate from the freezer. Leave it to cool on the plate, and after a few minutes it should wrinkle up when you push it with a finger. It should feel like a stiff jelly. If it is still runny, leave it to boil for another 5 - 10 minutes. Keep testing it as you go. Alternatively you can aim to reach a temperature of 104˚C - 105˚C if you have a sugar thermometer. The pots I found are roughly 4 1/2 inches tall and 3 inches in diameter and are certainly of the 1 lb. variety. Rimmed at the top, this feature was likely required to accommodate the tied covers described above. By then the business employed about 300 people producing marmalade, jams, jellies and general confectionery that included lozenges, candies and gum goods. That being said, Bremner made it clear that by then the production of marmalade had achieved prime importance. Oranges are usually in season from the beginning of December till the end of March, and the years’s supply of marmalade must be made in that time. The oranges used are the bitter variety obtained from Seville in Spain. They are imported in chests containing 2 cwt. each. Messrs Keiller consume 3,ooo chests annually from which they produce about 1000 tons of marmalade…In the course of the season, about a million and a half of pound pots of marmalade, besides a considerable number of jars containing from seven to fourteen pounds, are turned out.
