Cooking Plum Jam and Stewing Fruit

Mum and I were at the shops today. The green grocer had a whole grocery bag full of stone fruit for $3:00. We stewed the peaches and nectarines with a little sugar. We also used the plums to make five jars of jam.

Recipe is as follows:

170g plums including skin and stones cut in half

170g sugar

2 cups water

4 teaspoons lemon juice

Stew until it thickens when dripped on a plate. Remove skin and stones. Sterilize jars and ladle in the jam.

By the way it was very yummy.
