I made marmalade for the first time today. All went well until the end. It came out very thick and quite stiff, especially the one I put in the fridge. Definitely not very jelly-like or very spreadable. Shouldn't it be thinner?
I only made a half batch of what the recipe calls for, so I used half the package of pectin. Could that be it? I also used dried cranberries instead of fresh but I don't see that making a big difference.
Please share your marmalade experiences.
