Instructions
0 Add the sliced plums, sugar, whole cardamom pods and salt into a saucepan stirring to combine. 9 Bringing the stove to medium-high, bring the mixture to a boil and continue heating until the sugar dissolves. 2 During this process, use a utensil similar to a potato masher to mash the plums, breaking them down. 3 Add lemon juice and stir to combine. 4 Lower the heat to a simmer and keep stirring while boiling, skimming off any foam. 5 Continue stirring for about 20-30 minutes total. You’ll know that the jam is ready when the juices have thickened significantly. 6 You can also test whether your jam is ready by using a cold plate! To do this, add a small plate to the freezer and place a spoonful of jam on the plate. If your jam sets within one minute on the cold plate you’re finished! If not, you’ll need to continue cooking a bit longer. 8 Finally, strain using a fine-mesh sieve discarding the cardamom pods and into an airtight heat-proof container and allow to cool before using.View original recipe
