orange marmalade

Bitter breakfast spread

Orange marmalade is a preserve made from oranges, distinguished from jam by the inclusion of citrus peel suspended in the jelly.

The peel is typically cut into thin strips, giving marmalade its characteristic bittersweet flavor and chunky texture.

Most associated with British breakfast tables, spread on toast: Would you pass the orange marmalade?
