Marrow Ginger

• 6lb/3 kg prepared marrow
• 4 lemons
• 3

A very large marrow will be needed to yield enough prepared flesh, but the quantities may be halved if preferred. Peel the marrow, remove seeds and pith and weigh the flesh. Cut into neat cubes and steam until just tender. Put into a bowl with the grated rind and juice of the lemons. Bruise the ginger and tie in a piece of muslin to suspend in the bowl. Stir in the sugar. Leave in a cool place
