Plum jam

HOW TO MAKE PLUM JAM

Step 1: Wash the plums, remove the seeds and cut the plums in pieces.

Step 2: In a saucepan, add the plums cut in pieces, the sugar, honey, liqueur and the cinnamon stick. Stir and cook over low heat about 40 minutes until thickens (pass a wooden spoon in the bottom of the saucepan and if it leaves a trail like a road, the sweet is ready), stirring occasionally (we like to leave the jam with small plum chunks).

Step 3: Turn off the heat, remove the cinnamon stick and let cool to room temperature.

Step 4: Reserve the sweet in a glass jar tightly closed.
