Ingredients

  • 1 etrog
  • 3/4 cup sugar or amount equal to weight of fruit

Instructions

  • Rinse the etrog. Cut it lengthwise and slice very thin. Remove any seeds.
  • Soak the fruit overnight in water, making sure to fully cover it. Place it in a pot and bring it to a boil.
  • Remove the etrog and change the water and bring to a boil again. Then remove the fruit and weigh it. Match with an equal amount of sugar (no need for any water).
  • Cook over low flame for about 45 minutes or until it takes on a jam-like appearance.
