Plum Jam - Recipe Review - Fast and Easy Cooking (UK)
« on: March 13, 2013, 01:14:46 pm »
This is divine... and that's the comment from friends, to whom I've given jars of this as a gift.

The addition of the spices - cinnamon, but in particular, the cloves - make this a real delight - and it would work well for a Christmas gift.  I have had one person tell me that it makes an excellent glaze for their roast.  I think there's a compliment in that concept somewhere, but I'm not sure!

The recipe calls for 800g of JAM sugar - and as I didn't have that, I used about 25g of Jamsetta (powdered pectin) to the suggested weight of sugar, which was either white or raw, or probably a mix (dependent on pantry's provisions!). 

One of the reasons that I prefer this recipe to the one in the EDC (which I haven't made, only read), is that this one only needs 12 minutes of cooking time.

I will be making this recipe again - it's delicious!
