Plum season!

7/28/2013

I spent most of today making a beautiful batch of Plum Jam with my favorite varieties: 'Sprite' and 'Delight.' Luckily, both are grafted on to the same tree. It has been raining plums this week---plop, plop, plop---and fortunately the squirrels are busy in the neighbors prune orchard and haven't found ours. Everything in the jam kitchen has plum stains, that nice deep reddish-purple, and it smells wonderful.

Those copper kettles are beautiful! I see that this is what "small batch" means. No wonder your jams are so good. In talking to you, I've been interested in what you have to say about the proportion of sugar to fruit you use in your jams. I suspect other consumers and readers might be interested in that, too.
