Damson Jam Recipe | |
American Jellies and Jams | |
|
Ingredients:
5 lb damsons 2 pints water 5 lb sugar
Directions:
Wash the fruit and place it in a large preserving pan with the water. Bring to the boil, then simmer until the damsons are soft. During cooking, skim as many stones as possible from the surface of the pulp. Continue to cook until the pulp is reduced and thickened, stirring frequently to prevent it burning on the bottom of the pan. Add the sugar and stir until it has completely dissolved, then bring the jam to a rolling boil and boil hard until setting point is reached. | |
