How to make the best plum jam using Damson plums| Easy way to pit your plums by roasting overnight!

In late August or early summer, Damson plums can be found at the farmers markets in my area. This plum is absolutely perfect when ripe for making plum jam. One year, I got a tip, from a farmer at the market, for pitting these plums, and that is to bake the plums in a low oven (200 degree Fahrenheit) overnight. The next morning you squish out the pits and then make the jam.

I like to use freshly squeezed lemon juice and Vermouth as flavor boosters. If I happen to have a vanilla bean, I use that too,

I made some a few years ago. I cooked the plums then mashed them in a collander. It was quick work.

Delightful process video of Damson jam. I think you could trust yourself on the fullness of the jars.

But I like the flavour that the stones give the jam, so pick them out at the end when they float to the surface 😊

Why dont You just stir the plum pulp through the colander, use a pasta collander and press it through with a spoon, and all the pith is left in the collander?

How many plums do you use for that recipe?
