A Simple Beautiful Homemade Plum Jam, Lena

Updated: Feb 29

  • A simple homemade plum jam. This is my mom's recipe as she prepares it and I can tell you that it is the best and simplest recipe, and the jam is phenomenal for coating over bread, donuts, rolls, pies, strudels, etc. You will need a little good patience and effort to make it. To make such a wonderful jam, follow this recipe. See how jars are sterilized here. Follow recipe.

Ingredients: simple, total time: 3h
  • 1 kg of peeled ripe plums (not overripe or hard plums)

  • 200 g of sugar

  • 1 jam-fix 3 in 1/ 25 g read the instructions on the bag

  • You can add 1 cap of rum and vanilla sticks, although I don't use it, there is no need!

Preparation:
  1. Clean the preserving jars (100 °C for about 10 min), and lids (cover them with boiling water).

  2. Let them dry.

  3. Wash the plums well and remove the pits, then grind the plums well on the machine for the meat.

  4. Arrange them in a large deep bowl, a row of plums and then a row of sugar until you have used up the material.

  5. Cover the dish with nylon foil and let stand for 1 hour and 40 minutes.

  6. After the time has passed, remove the foil and put it on a slightly moderate heat to cook the plums with sugar, and after 15 minutes, add the jam-fix and occasional stirring.

  7. When the jam starts to boil, cook for another 1 hour, with constant stirring.

  8. When the hot jam is ready, put them in sterile jars that you have already prepared, cover them strong and turn them all upside down to stand for 24 hours at room temperature.

  9. If the jars are dirty, wipe them with a clean cloth.

  10. Be careful not to burn yourself, always have a cloth next to you when you touch the jar!

  11. The next day after the time expires, you can arrange them in the pantry as a winter store.
