Southern Living August 2011 Ingredients:
4 1/2 cups unpeeled and diced plums (about 2 1/2 lb.) |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar |
1 (1 3/4 ounce) package powdered fruit pectin |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil |
Directions:
1. Stir together all ingredients except basil in a 4-qt. microwave-safe glass bowl.
2. Microwave at HIGH 8 minutes (mixture will boil). Stir mixture, and microwave at HIGH 8 to 10 minutes or until thickened. (You're going for the viscosity of pancake syrup here.
3. The mixture will thicken to soft-set preserves after it cools and chills.) Stir basil into warm preserves.
4. Cool mixture completely (about 2 hours). Serve immediately, or cover and chill preserves in an airtight container until ready to serve. Store in refrigerator up to 3 weeks.
