Bread Machine L&J Santa Rosa Plum Jam image

Leslie and Jim have a Santa Rosa plum tree. Here is the recipe for the jam we made from that tree's delicious fruit. Use a bread machine with a Jam setting and at least a 9 cup bowl to make this jam or use your stove with a heavy bottom pan that can hold at least 10 cups of jam.

  • 9. Taste the jam (dip spoon into jam and let it cool) and add up to 1/2 cup of sugar to balance out the sweet-sour taste.
  • 10. If you will refrigerate or freeze the jam, let it cool slightly then put in clean containers and place in the fridge/freezer.
