Notes to Myself on Making Plum Jam

Excuse me while I use my blog to help me remember some of the finer points of  making plum jam.  Anyone reading this:  feel free to add pointers.

1.  Cut plums in half and remove seeds

2. 8 cups of halved plums makes 5 half-pint jars

3. 8 cups of halved plums and 3 1/2 cups sugar.  Boil 10-12 min.  Use the cold bowl test.

4.  Honey’s tall white bucket makes 3 batches of jam (12 half-pint jars)
