Steps:
- Place several small plates or saucers in the freezer.
- Wash the citrus well under warm running water. Cut the lemons and orange in half lengthwise. Cut each half into 1/8-inch segments, lengthwise. Pluck out any exposed membrane and remove the seeds.
- Measure the cut citrus. You should have 2 1/2 cups, but if you have less, use the same volume of water and sugar as you have citrus. (If there are only 2 cups, for example, use 2 cups water and 2 cups sugar.) Place the citrus and the same volume of water into a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until the peels are very soft and fully cooked, about 20 to 30 minutes.
- Add the sugar to the pot, stir to combine. Turn the heat up to high and bring back to a boil. Lower the heat to medium and let the marmalade simmer until set. It should take about 20 to 30 minutes, but start checking after 15 minutes to see if it is set by spooning a little onto a chilled plate from the freezer. If it looks like jam and not runny syrup, it's ready. (If you want to use a candy thermometer, you are looking for 222 degrees.)
- Allow marmalade to cool to room temperature before serving. Store leftovers in the refrigerator and use within a month.

LEMON AND BLOOD ORANGE GELéE PARFAITS
Inspired by a wonderful dessert in the pastry chef Sherry Yard's "Desserts by the Yard," this is a beautifully layered jello. First make the lemon gelée - even better if you have Meyer lemons at your disposal - and let it set in the glasses (this will take about an hour, so plan accordingly). Then make the blood orange jelly and pour on top of the lemon layer. The lemon layer is thinner than the blood orange layer.

Steps:
- Get out six 6- or 8-ounce glasses (I use 6-ounce tumblers that taper out from the bottom).
- Make the lemon layer. Place the gelatin in a medium bowl and pour in 1/4 cup of the water. Allow the gelatin to sit and "bloom" for 10 minutes. Combine the remaining water and the sugar in a saucepan and bring to a bare simmer. Simmer until the sugar has dissolved and remove from the heat. Pour over the gelatin mixture and stir until the gelatin has dissolved. Stir in the lemon juice. Pour about an inch into each of the glasses. Place in the refrigerator until set, about 1 hour.
- Make the blood orange gelée. Juice all but one of the oranges and strain. Juice the remaining orange, strain out the seeds but not the pulp, and add to the strained juice. Place the gelatin in a medium bowl and pour in 1/4 cup of the water. Allow the gelatin to sit and "bloom" for 10 minutes. Combine the remaining water and the sugar in a saucepan and bring to a bare simmer. Simmer until the sugar has dissolved and remove from the heat. Pour over the gelatin mixture and stir until the gelatin has dissolved. Stir in the orange juice. Make sure that the lemon layers are set and fill the tumblers with the orange juice mixture. If you want, you can make different patterns, alternating stripes of orange and yellow, but you will have to allow each layer to set before you add the next one. Refrigerate for several hours, until set.

Steps:
- In a small saucepan, bring the orange juice to a simmer over medium-low heat. Continue simmering until the juice reduces by one-third and becomes syrupy, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool completely. Combine the egg yolks with the sugar in a medium bowl and beat with an electric mixer until thick and pale yellow, 4 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile, bring the milk to a gentle simmer in a medium saucepan. Stir about one-half of the warm milk into the egg-sugar mixture (to warm it up so the eggs won't curdle) and whisk to blend. Pour this mixture into the milk remaining in the saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cream. Strain the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a glass bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing the wrap onto the surface of the mixture to prevent a skin from forming. Chill for at least 2 hours. Stir the orange syrup into the custard and freeze in an ice-cream machine according to the manufacturer's instructions. Sprinkle with the orange zest and garnish with mint leaves before serving.
