Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 400 gr. plums (that is what I had, but usually the ratio is 1:1 for fruit and sugar)
- 400 gr. sugar (I'm trying to cut on white sugar so I put a little less)
- 1 lemon, the juice
Instruction
- Take the plums, wash them and cut them into pieces, taking care to remove the core.
- Put them in a large pot and squeeze the lemon in.
- Add the sugar, stir and cook at high heat for about 30-35 minutes.
- Remember to stir occasionally, so that the plums do not stick to the bottom of the pan.
- With a wooden spoon remove repeatedly the foam from the top.
- Your jam is ready when it reaches the right consistency: check by placing a drop of jam on a plate and tilting it. If the droplet flows with difficulty, it means that is the right density.
- At this point, turn off the heat and place the jam in special glass jars, which you have previously washed with hot water.
- Clean up the edges of the jars before closing the lids. Make sure they are sealed properly (so you don’t get any air in).
- Let cool and your plum jam is ready.
