Steps:
- Wash the plums, cut them in half, discard the pits and place the plums in a large pot.To chop or not to chop:If you're NOT using pectin and are letting the jam simmer for a long time, there's no need to chop them because they'll break down by themselves and you can always give the jam a mash or use a hand blender to puree part of it later on if you don't want as many chunks.If you ARE using pectin the jam will only need boil for a few minutes and the plums will not break down, so go ahead and chop the plums up.Add the sugar and lemon juice and heat the pot, initially over medium heat so the plums or sugar don't scorch. Once the plums juices start to run you can increase the heat.
- If you're NOT using pectin: Simmer the plum uncovered until an instant read thermometer reads 220 degrees F. That's important in order for the jam to set and not be too runny. (Alternatively, freeze a couple of spoons and drop some jam onto them: If the jam sets and is spreadable, but not runny, it is done.) Don't bother skimming off the foam because that will all dissolve by itself towards the end.If you ARE using pectin: Follow the package instructions of whatever pectin you are using. Skim off the foam.If you like you can use a potato masher or a hand-held immersion blender to mash/blend part of the jam until the desired amount of chunkiness is reached.
- Using sterilized jars, ladle the hot jam into the jars and wipe off the rims with a moist towel to make sure no jam is on the rims. Fill each jar to no less than 1/4 inch from the top. Wash the lids with soapy water and, place them on the jars and screw on the sterilized rings. Boil them in a water bath canner for 10 minutes.Carefully remove the jars and let them sit undisturbed for 24 hours before removing the rings (optional) and storing them in a cool place. They will keep for up to a year. Once opened, store in the fridge, will keep for at least a month.
- Makes about 7 half pints.

Steps:
- Place the plums and water into a large pot, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the sugar, and add butter to reduce foaming, if needed. Bring the mixture to a full, rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly, and then mix in the pectin quickly. Return the jam to a full boil, and boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and skim off and discard any foam.
- Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the plum jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/8 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
- Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area. Refrigerate opened jars for up to 3 weeks.

Steps:
- Sterilise the jars and any other equipment before you start (see tip). Put a couple of saucers in the freezer, as you'll need these for testing whether the jam is ready later (or use a sugar thermometer). Put the plums in a preserving pan and add 200ml water. Bring to a simmer, and cook for about 10 mins until the plums are tender but not falling apart. Add the sugar, ground cinnamon and lemon juice, then let the sugar dissolve slowly, without boiling. This will take about 10 mins.
- Increase the heat and bring the jam to a full rolling boil. After about 5 mins, spoon a little jam onto a cold saucer. Wait a few seconds, then push the jam with your fingertip. If it wrinkles, the jam is ready. If not, cook for a few mins more and test again, with another cold saucer. If you have a sugar thermometer, it will read 105C when ready.
- Take the jam off the heat and add the cinnamon sticks (if using) and the knob of butter. The cinnamon will look pretty in the jars and the butter will disperse any scum. Let the jam cool for 15 mins, which will prevent the lumps of fruit sinking to the bottom of the jars. Ladle into hot jars, seal and leave to cool. Will keep for 1 year in a cool, dark place. Chill once opened.

GREEK PLUM JAM
From the September 26, 2008 Athens' Plus magazine. Plums are one of my favorite fruits (I like pluots too - a hybrid of plums and apricots) This listed the yield as "2 jars" but the pictured jar looks about 1/2 the size of a Mason jar. This recipe listed "1 wine glass of brandy" but thanks to Evelyn/Athens conversions here:http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=220845, I'm listing this as 225 mL. Cook time is a guess.

Steps:
- Wash the fruit well, remove the stones and slice the fruit.
- Peel and grate the apples.
- Boil the sugar and cinnamon sticks in a saucepan with 5 cups of water.
- When it begins to form a syrup, add the fruit to the pan and allow to boil, stirring occasionally so the mixture doesn't stick to the pan.
- When it thickens and forms bubbles on the surface, remove a spoonful and put it onto a dry white plate, cool quickly and draw the tip of a spoon across it - if it leaves a path, then the jam is ready.
- Add the lemon juice and brandy (if desired) and mix for two more minutes.
- Remove from the heat, discard the cinnamon sticks and fill the jars, which have been boiled and drained thoroughly.
- Close the jars firmly and turn upside down until cool.

Steps:
- Place the plums, pineapple, apple juice, orange juice concentrate, and lemon juice into a large pot over medium-low heat, cover, and cook until the plums are soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Mash the plums and pineapple with a potato masher until thoroughly broken up, but leave small chunks of fruit in the mixture. With the fruit mixture at a slow simmer, stir in the cloves, allspice, pectin, and butter (to reduce foaming). Raise heat to high and bring the mixture to a full, rolling boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Mix in the sugar, stirring constantly, and cook for 1 more minute at a full, rolling boil. Remove from heat, stir in red food coloring until even in color, and skim off any foam.
- Sterilize 12-ounce canning jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the plum jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.

PLUM PUDDING
An old fashioned plum pudding that was passed down to me from my grandmother, with a modification of using baking mix instead of making the top from scratch. I serve it with ice cream or what I call a Dip made from milk and flavored to taste with cinnamon and vanilla. I let each individual pour on the amount of dip they would like from a small pitcher.

SUPERB ENGLISH PLUM PUDDING
This pudding is really best when made a year in advance and allowed to mellow. It was customary to make it early in Advent - the religious season before Christmas - and use it the following year. Everyone in the family was supposed to stir the pudding once for good luck. If you can't make it the year before, at least give it a few weeks to age.
