Yellow Plum Jam
by August-27-2015
Tangy and sweet plum jam.


Ingredients:
  • 1000g Yellow Plums stoned and diced
  • 1000g Sugar
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice

Method:
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.

    Oh nice Nayna. I've not made jam for ages, but there is nothing better than homemade fruity jam. This one looks like a winner

    I am planning a trip to the PYO farm to get yellow plums, am sure I will get too many so your jam recipe will come in handy!

    I've never made my own jam, I really should have a go, I'd love to try some different fruits. I was looking for gooseberry jam the other day and couldn't find any.

    I 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. :)

    I have not tried many jam recipes at home, but your yellow plum jam is so tempting. Will look out for yellow plums.
