Ingredients:
2 pounds red plums |
1/2 cup water |
4 cups sugar |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves |
Directions:
1. Wash plums, and slit each in 3 places, using a paring knife. Combine plums and water in a Oat-bottomed kettle. Bring to a boil; boil 30 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat, and press through a sieve. Discard skins and seeds.
2. Return pulp to kettle, and add remaining ingredients, stirring well. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, 20 minutes or until mixture thickens.
3. Quickly ladle butter into hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Cover at once with metal lids, and screw bands tight. Process in boiling-water bath 5 minutes.
