  1. Absolutely fantastic! I was scared it was going to be too sweet but the ginger counteracts the sweetness. Having said that, I cut the recipe down for two people, but forgot to reduce the ginger as well. My housemate claimed that american marmalade was also sweeter than ours, so I went for the full 2 tbsp of sugar - I don't know whether I should have done that, but it did work!
