Make yellow plum jam yourself – that’s how it works

If you have everything together, making Mirabelle jam is very easy.

• First, wash the plums thoroughly and remove the stones. In the end, you should now have 2 kg of fruit.
• Puree the fruit with the hand blender. If you would like a few pieces of fruit in the jam, do not chop the fruit so finely.
• Put the mirabelle plums in a saucepan and stir in the weighed-out jam sugar. Boil the mixture while stirring.
• As soon as the sauce is boiling, add the lemon juice. The jam is now allowed to simmer for about 5 minutes.
• You can tell if the jam is ready by testing it to set. To do this, put a little jam on a chilled plate. After about two minutes, the mass should be thick or firm.
• Now you can fill the finished jam into the sterilized jars and close them. Turn the jars upside down to cool.
• Tip: Label the jars with the contents and the date.
• Gift idea: Use beautiful labels to write on and fix a piece of pretty fabric with a rubber band, have a personal gift for friends, or a souvenir for the next invitation.
