Pear Marmalade - {Marmellata Di Pere}

Recipe Instructions Mix fruit and sugar together thoroughly, cover with a kitchen towel, and set aside for at least 3 hours to let the juices start to run. Transfer to a large non-reactive saucepan and cook over moderate to medium-low heat until pears are heated through, about 10 minutes stirring with a wooden spoon to prevent sticking. Remove from heat when mixture is dense. This recipe yields 3 cups.
