Here is the recipe for the strawberry marmalade.
Strawberry marmalade (taken from Taste of Home canning: and preserving magazine 2012)
This recipe make ordinary orange marmalade into something really special! Sometimes I make it using strawberries that I've frozen. I just thaw them into the refrigerator overnight.

Pascoag, Rodhe Island
2 medium oranges
2 medium lemons
1/2 cup water
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1 quart ripe strawberries, crushed
7 cups sugar
1 pouch liquid fruit pectin (half of a 6-ounce package)
Peel outer layer of oranges and lemons; set aside. Remove the white membrane from fruit and discard. Set the fruit aside. Chop peels; place in a large saucepan. Add water and baking soda; cover and bring to a boil. Simmer for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, section oranges and lemons, reserving juice.Add fruit and juice to saucepan; cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Add strawberries. Measure fruit; return 4 cups to the saucepan . (If you have more than 4 cups, discard any extra; if less, add water to equal 4 cups.) Add sugar and mix well. Boil uncovered, for 5 minutes.
Remove from the heat; stir in pectin. Stir for 5 minutes to cool; skim foam.
Carefully ladle into hot half-pint jars or freezer containers, leaving 1/4-in. headspace. Remove air bubbles; wipe rims and adjust lids. Process for 10 minutes in a boiling-water canneror store in the freezer. Serve with toast or biscuits.
