Indian Grapefruit Marmalade

Cultural Context

Grapefruit, a fruit introduced to India in the 19th century, is transformed into a sweet and tangy preserve, often paired with bread or used in desserts. This marmalade reflects the Indian tradition of making preserves and chutneys, which are integral to the culinary landscape. Today, variations of marmalade can be found globally, with each region adding its unique twist.
