Yellow Plum Jam
Tangy and sweet plum jam.
- 1000g Yellow Plums stoned and diced
- 1000g Sugar
- 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1. Add the stoned diced yellow plums to a heavy based saucepan with the sugar and lemon juice and heat on a medium heat until sugar starts to melt.2. Shake the pan and continue to cook the jam on a slow boil until plums start to break down and jam thickens, it takes approximately 15-18 minutes.3. To check the setting point of the jam place a sugar thermometer in the jam and move it around so that you get an even heat distribution, than take pan off the heat and take reading. The jam should be at 105 degrees C or 215 degrees F.4. Once jam reaches the required temperature, remove the pan from heat and allow to cool slightly.Transfer the jam to sterilised jam for storing.

ReplyDeleteI've not made jam in a very long time and I don't think I've ever eaten plum jam before. Sounds delicious! x
ReplyDeleteI like fruit jams, but all jams from market added acid and have a strong sour taste. I can't taste any fruit, but always acid and sour. I like this very much, easy to make and I think I will omit the lemon juice, although only 1 tablespoon. Homemade jam always the best. I can adjust to my own taste. :)
ReplyDeleteI need to try this!
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely! My jam normally ends up runny, but will try your recipe!
ReplyDeleteI have not tried many jam recipes at home, but your yellow plum jam is so tempting. Will look out for yellow plums.
