- Plums can be abundant in the summer, but removing the seeds can be a major chore. Here's how to do large amounts quickly, so that you can then turn your plum pulp into jam, fruit leather, Asian plum sauce...whatever you like.
My recipe for this plum sauce was 2 cups sugar, 1 tsp each of cinnamon and cardamom, 1/2 tsp each of black pepper and allspice, and a tsp of orange extract. This made 14 pints. You can adapt this to your taste as the plums are so acidic that they can handle more or less sugar and spice as you like.
Short and sweet! Appreciated!
I’m in zone 7A Northern California-I have 2 x Santa Rosa plum trees and we are overloaded with them every year, they don’t get very big ! I’ll try your tips , so thank you 😊

That foodmill is hard to find.
This is the one recommended by America's Test Kitchen. www.amazon.com/dp/B000G18A3W?tag=akotrx02664-20
Talking far too much
Thanks for the feedback.
I don't think so
NAH
Nice video ❤ just picked 5 kilos of what we call Doris Plums here in New Zealand. So thank you because now I know how to process this batch.
سلام خسته نباشی مرحله آخر شیشه ها در آب جوش چن دقیقه بجوشه، آیا شیشه نمی ترکه
If translation of question is right, no glass will not crack. Special glass made for this purpose.
I really like your recipe. It really takes all of the work out of it.

What do you do if the pits are shatterex?
I don't find that they usually shatter. But if they did, I'd either send the mixture through a finer setting on the food mill to sift out the shells, or just keep stirring and removing them. I've never had it be an issue.
That happened to me too - nightmare 😢
@@cookingtheharvestI sieved 3 times and worried. My plum sauce and jam may have tiny pieces.
@@Honeybee-Hedgehog-Designs perhaps a different type of plum. I'm so sorry. I've literally never had this happen. The alternative would be to to a jelly, and just put the pulp in a jelly bag and let it drip. Different product, but guarantee of no shells.
Seems like if it's something that might be an issue for that particular plum variety, you could just add a step of cutting open the plums to check for that before putting in the pot on the stove. It would add some processing time but also some piece of mind.
What if some plums have maggots inside, and you don't cut the plums open to identify them? I found that the flesh can be scratched off the seeds using a mixer.
Well, then you're gonna be eating a few insect larvae. Cooked of course. Likely harmless. But definitely an ick factor.
