I'd recommend Marguerite Patten's book "Basic Jams, Preserves and Chutneys", available from all good bookstores

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Basic-Basics-Jams-Preserves-Chutneys/dp/1902304721/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328304198&sr=8-1

I'd also recommend a jam thermometer, takes some of the guesswork out of the process, although I still also use the "wrinkle test". If you want a slightly offbeat taste, use soft brown sugar instead of granulated, it gives a richer, darker flavour.

You could also try using lemons, limes or grapefruit as well as the oranges, it gives a fuller flavour.

It's taken me a good few batches to get the hang of it, suggest that you experiment and find a recipe that works for you and which you like the taste of

Happy cooking!
