Prickly Pear Marmalade
A ruby red, fruity marmalade. I've never tried any commercial prickly pear jam or jelly, so I don't know if this is how it's supposed to taste, but my toddler does keep asking for more, so it's a win for our family. Store any extra jam in the refrigerator.

Cook's Notes:
I recommend a Microplane(R) for zesting as it keeps the pieces small.
For a clearer jelly, you'll want to strain your fruit through a cheesecloth after running through it a food mill.
Editor's Note:
Handle prickly pears carefully, wearing gloves.
