Ingredients

  • 1 lb plum
  • 1 lb granulated sugar
  • 1/8 pint water (Yes, one eighth!)

Method

  • If you have loads of plums, just stick to the proportions above.
  • Wash the plums and slit them.
  • Put in heavy pan with the water.
  • Simmer very gently till tender.
  • Remove stones and sieve- save time- liquidise.
  • Put in pan with sugar.
  • Stir continuously till the sugar is completely dissolved, then boil fast till setting point is reached.
  • Careful here, I strongly recommend using a jam thermometer at this last step.
  • I like mine sliced, so pot it in small rectangular dishes.
  • It'a fine for people who dislike seeds in their preserves.
