Greengage jam is pretty hard to find in the shops, and plum jam hardly less so. This is a real shame, because they are both delicious, very easy to make and a great use for a glut of fruit.
Ingredients
1 kg 2 lb 3 oz 1
Method
- Put the greengage stones into a jelly bag. Roughly chop the flesh (you do not want any large pieces of skin to persist in the final jam) and put into a large pan.
- Add the lemon zest to the fruit. Put the squeezed lemon halves into the jelly bag, tie it up and put it in the pan.
- Add cold water to the lemon juice to bring it to a total volume of 200ml/7fl oz
