    Title: Apricock Marmalaid
    Categories: Preserves
    Yield: 1 Batch

    8 Apricots
    2/3 c Sugar; generous
    1/3 c Water

    Peel the apricots, remove their pits, and cut them into quarters.
    Cook them to a pulp with half the sugar. The apricots will release
    their own juices so no water is necessary here. (Approximately
    10 minutes.)

    Make a simple syrup with the remaining 1/3 cup sugar and 1/3 cup
    water in a saucepan. Use a candy thermometer to keep track of the
    temperature and cook until it reaches candy height/pearl stage 240°F
    on the thermometer. When the syrup has reached this temperature, add
    the cooked apricots to it. Stir to combine over the heat, but do not
    allow the mix to boil.

    Remove from heat and stir as the mixture cools. Transfer into a clean
    jar. This amount of apricots and sugar nicely filled an 8 oz jelly
    jar.

    Keep refrigerated and eat within two weeks. (You can also properly
    can this for longer storage.)
