Over the past few months of citrus preserving,

food swaps

• Swirl it into oatmeal and yogurt: Using jam to brighten up our morning yogurt or oatmeal is nothing new, but for some reason we only recently tried marmalade – it’s fantastic, especially paired with toasted nuts.

• Bake it into scones: Add a 1/2 cup of marmalade to your favorite scone recipe, or try Marmalade Barley Scones from Good to the Grain author Kim Boyce.

• Whisk it into salad dressings: Vinaigrette sweetened with marmalade is delicious on arugula, spinach or kale salads.

• Use it in marinades: A marinade of soy sauce and marmalade can be used on all sorts of proteins, such as this Marmalade Tofu from VeganYumYum and Grilled Pork Tenderloin from Simply Recipes.

• Serve it with cheese: Okay, this does sort of fall in the toast category, but we love sweet, tangy marmalade on a crostini or tartine with creamy goat cheese.

• Drizzle it over a cake: The slight bitterness of marmalade can really complement a sweet cake. Faith is fond of this vegan Sticky Orange Cake with Marmalade Glaze.

• Sip it: Have you ever had a marmalade cocktail? We’re intrigued by the Kinloch Plantation Special, a whiskey punch with marmalade and nutmeg. Get the recipe and learn about marmalade mixology at the Atlantic.
