I've never made jam before and I found a recipe on Mykitchensnippets' blog. It seemed simple and I decided to try it. It calls for six chopped plums, one and a half cups of white sugar and the juice of one lemon. Boil for 30 minutes and spoon into a jar! It's delicious! I made sure to wait until the plums were ripe, sweet and juicy. It doesn't require canning as it's just one jar that you are going use and refrigerate. Is this something you would try making yourself?

I love making jam and when I make it, I do a whole batch, and have some presents for other people. It is always delicious! Valerie
It sounds easy, but that's a lot of sugar!!!
Oh, wow! YES, I would try it! Sounds really good - and I think it would be great as Christmas presents? Thanks for the inspiration, xo
It does sound delicious. How clever to make just one jar of jam. Sometimes we make big batch and it is too much.
Lovely!

YUM!!!!!! Love plum jam. We have three plum trees so I make it and can it and also freeze the shopped plums to use later for more jam.
Well done Christine. I would definitely make plum jam and may try this recipe. I love plums.
Well Gigi, it is jam after all, pure sugar!
My mother would make plum jelly using the Santa Rosa plums from my sister's tree. It was the best plum jelly ever. A friend of mine gave me a jar last year that she made, and it was almost as good as my mother's. Almost.
