A simple recipe for making plum jam with spices for the winter
We prepare the plums for processing: wash them, remove the tails and bones. We put them in a saucepan with a thick bottom.
Simmer the fruit over low heat, covered with a lid, for about 15–20 minutes, so that they are thoroughly softened.
When the halves of the plums have turned into gruel, remove the pan from the heat, let them cool slightly (to about 70-80 degrees) and puree with a submersible blender. You can make the jam completely homogeneous by carefully breaking the pulp and skin, or you can, if you like, leave small uncrushed fragments.
Add sugar and spices to the plum puree. Cook jam with spices, stirring constantly and not letting the sugar stick to the bottom, for about 20 minutes, and then we take out a cinnamon stick and an star anise star so that the aroma is not too intrusive.
If you want the plum jam to be thicker, continue to cook it over low heat for another 15 minutes.
Pour jam into sterile, well-heated jars and close them with lids. We wrap the jars and leave to cool completely.
Fragrant plum jam with a delicate pleasant aftertaste is ready. Now you can happily while away winter evenings with a cup of strong tea and spicy jam.
Filled with vibrant color and warmth of oriental aromas, plum jam with spices will become your favorite delicacy! Have a nice tea party!
