Jam: Mixed Plum Jam
The perfect jam: mixed plum jam recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.
- 2 kg Plums or
- Fresh plums
- 0,5 kg Sugar
- 2 tbsp Cinnamon & sugar
- 0,5 tsp Bourbon vanilla flavor
- Wash the plums then stone them, cut them in half in the wok, put sugar, cinnamon & sugar on top and “fire” underneath …. about level 4 (of 9) and slowly bring to a simmer ….. this creates juice …
- 2 ….. switch off the whole thing … let it cool down and put it on the balcony overnight, so everything goes well …
- 3 …. put back on the oven, heat to 4 (of 9), scoop the juice into another saucepan and set it aside …
- The rest of the pot (in the wok) is now in the mixer 😉 … and mix … then back in the wok and is simmered for a while on level 2. To do this, I opened the lid and placed it on it, because it splashes every now and then and yet the moisture must be able to escape, to do this I wipe the lid from the inside every now and then …..
- 5 …. a gelation test can be helpful to decide whether the puree for the glasses is then ready, but the color also changes, the puree becomes darker and darker 😉
- So now the jars are ready to go and fill the jars with the pulp, screw the lid on tightly and turn the jars upside down for the first 20 minutes, then straighten them up and let them cool completely under a cloth, preferably overnight.
- Please do not forget the jelly, simmer it at the same time, make a gelling test and fill it into a jar …. close it …. turn it upside down …. stand it up and let it cool down.
