Wild Yellow-Orange Plum Jam

Ingredients

For 10 servings

• •1 kg 1 kg plums
• •700 g 700 g granulated sugar
• •1 1 lemon

Method

1. 1.Rinse and drain the wild plums. In a pot or jam basin, add the whole plums, the sugar, the lemon juice, and the zest that you cut into a ribbon and add to the pot. Stir well and let macerate overnight. The next day, wash the jars and sterilize them in boiling water. Set them to dry on a clean cloth without wiping them.
2. 2.Bring the pot to a boil and let cook for 20 min over high heat, stirring often. Drain the plums and pass them through a food mill as I explain above. Meanwhile, let the maceration juice cook for 30 min. Pour the pulp of the wild plums back into the pot and cook for another 15 min, stirring regularly. Fill the sterilized jars with the still-hot jam. Screw on the jars and turn them upside down, leaving them like that until completely cooled.
