Green Tomato Marmalade and Fresh Biscuits

If you have green tomatoes that you don't know what to do with, THIS, my friends, is the recipe you want to try! This green tomato marmalade is SO DELICIOUS! I've since made FOUR more batches in the week following the filming of this video and I'll be making more marmalade this weekend - it is THAT GOOD! I will also be giving some of this jam as gifts at Christmas, tucked into baskets with biscuits and other yummy goodness.
PS: it's quite funny to see me at the end of the video looking a bit wilted but seven hours in a hot kitchen will do that to a person! While the jam was cooking I was also slicin' and dicin' more veggies from the garden to go into the freezer and cooking supper, etc. This marmalade is worth the time and effort to make - trust me!
Here's my recipe:
DIVINE GREEN TOMATO MARMALADE

10 Cups diced green tomatoes (I did not remove seeds, but you can if you want to)
5 1/2 Cups white sugar
2 Cinnamon Sticks
Rind and juice from two lemons and one orange
1/4 Cup chopped fresh ginger
2 Lemons, cut and seeded
4 Oranges, cut and seeded (I've been using blood oranges too, which really gives the marmalade an amazing colour)
19oz Crushed Pineapple (undrained)
1/2 Cup Maraschino Cherries (quartered)
1. Place diced green tomatoes and sugar in large stock pot and stir well. Let sit three hours, to bring out the juice.
2. After three hours add the lemon and orange zest, and their juice, to the tomato/sugar mixture. Add crushed pineapple, ginger, two lemons and four oranges which have been chopped. Place pot on stove and bring to a boil. Turn burner to low and let simmer two hours, stirring occasionally, until jam cooks down.
3. Once jam has reached 220' or passed the 'plate test' pour into hot sterilized jars.
4. Wipe rims and place seal on top and then finger-tighten the ring.
5. Place jars in canner and process in water bath ten minutes. Remove from canner and place on towel lined counter.
6.Cover jars with a towel and let sit overnight. You will hear the 'pings' of the jars sealing!

♥♥♥ Enjoy this marmalade on buttermilk biscuits, toast, scones, cornbread, etc. This marmalade would even be fabulous over vanilla ice-cream! ♥♥♥

TINA'S BUTTERMILK BISCUITS

1 Cup buttermilk (or substitute 1 cup milk with 1 tablespoon lemon juice or vinegar)
2 Cups all purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup butter (or 1/4 cup shortening and 1/4 cup butter)
1. Preheat oven 425'
2. Place flour, salt, baking soda and baking powder into a bowl. Use a pastry blender or grater to add butter.

3. Add buttermilk and stir to make a soft dough. Turn dough onto floured surface and knead gently 8-12 times. Roll to desired thickness (biscuits will double in size when baked). Cut with a floured glass or cookie cutter and place on baking sheet.

4. Place biscuits close together for soft-sided biscuits or approx. 1" apart for crusty edge biscuits.

5. Bake 12-15 minutes or until golden.
*You an also add grated cheddar cheese to flour mixture, before adding milk.
♥♥♥ These biscuits are excellent with chili, soups, stews, spaghetti, or with cheese, meats and pickles or with jam (like this marmalade) for breakfast.
