Homemade Plum jam

 

Very easy way to make a jam. There is no corn syrup or gelatin in it. All natural ingredients.

We need:

• Plum (blended)
• Sugar (1 cup sugar for each 2 cups of blended plum)
• Steamed jars and tin covers
• Sous  pan
• Blender 
• 40-50 minutes

Directions:

Wash the plums and separate stones from them.

Blend it

looks awful I know:))

pour it into souspan, add sugar (in the picture 4 cups of blended plum and 2 cups of sugar)

mix in a high heat,  until sugar is melted. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes

simmer another 10 minutes

while the jam is simmering you can sterilize the jars. 

How do I usually do it?

Steam each jar 2-3 minutes. And place your lids in a bowl and pour hot water over them.

Jam is ready to can.

fill the sterilized jars with jam...

place them upside down until it cools down completely.

My jars were used jars that's why i made my own labels:))
