  Now ladle that hot marmalade into jars but do not fill more than 1/4 inch off top. Use dampened cloth to wipe rims and use lids in order to seal the jars. Take a water-bath canner or you can even choose to use a rack set for the next step.

  Take all the jars that have marmalade in them and carefully put them in either a water-bath canner or rack set in a deep pot. Once you have done putting jars there, add hot water to the pot about an inch and let it bring to a boil. Now you need to boil the jars and use tongs to transfer them to a rack. Let them stay there for a while and cool the jars completely.
