Ingredients

3.5 pound medium red, purple, and/or green plums (about 14)
2 medium red onions
2 cup water
2 cup red wine vinegar
2.5 cup sugar
2 3-4 inch cinnamon sticks
8 whole allspice

Steps:

Wash plums. Cut plums in half; pit. Remove root and stem ends from onions. Cut onion in half lengthwise; cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Pack plum halves and onion slices into hot, sterilized pint canning jars.
In a large stainless-steel, enamel, or nonstick heavy saucepan, combine the water and vinegar. Bring to boiling. Add sugar, cinnamon, allspice, cloves, star anise, and salt. Return to boiling, stirring until sugar dissolves. Remove from heat.
Pour hot liquid over plums and onions in jars, leaving a 1/4-inch headspace. Wipe jar rims; adjust lids.
Process filled jars in a boiling-water canner for 5 minutes (start timing when water returns to boiling). Remove jars from canner; cool on wire racks.
