BLACK PLUM & GINGER JAM (WITHOUT PECTIN)
Making your own jam is a great way to preserve any in-season fruits that you may have lying around the house. This black plum and ginger jam is so easy and is made without pectin. The ginger gives the jam a wonderful little kick. It's soft, sweet, slightly tart, and spreads like a dream!

Steps:
- Place the chopped plums, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, ginger and salt in a medium sauce pan over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve over a bowl, pressing down on the solids to extract as much juice as possible. Reserve the solids.
- Return the strained juices to the sauce pan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to avoid burning. Boil until a candy thermometer reads 220 degrees (the gel stage). Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the reserved solids.
- Transfer the jam to sterile jars, or freeze whatever jam you don't intend to use right away.
- Enjoy!
