Valentine's Day gift idea: homemade plum jam

They're supposed to be romantic gifts aren't they?

Or red, homemade and romantic...

Like my red plum jam...

 

Which I made the day before Valentine's day...

Plum jam 

Ingredients:

• 1.4kg plum
•  434ml water
• 1.2kg jam sugar

Method:

1. Wash and wipe the plums. Cut in halves, or quarters, remove the stones.
2. Put into a pan with the water and simmer gently until the fruit is soft.
3. Add the sugar, stirring until the sugar has dissolved.
4. Bring to the boil and boil rapidly until the jam sets when tested.
5. Fill jam in sterilized jars. Seal and store.

 See you later,
