    no special jars or lids, or canning pot, no water bath...love the simplicity!

      Foods that are high in sugar or acidic can be canned with this simple process. I do something similar when I make jam and never have an issue with it spoiling on the shelf.

    I had the hardest time finding a recipe with no added sugar. Plums are plenty sweet on their own. I have several more hours to go but it already smells amazing. Can't wait to taste it.

    Every plum recipe I’ve seen is like 50% plums and 50% sugar, I was wondering how did people make these things before you were able to buy bags of sugar? I’m sure they were fine without the extra sugar. I will try this, but takes a lot of patience, but I have a plum tree with hundreds of plums I can’t possibly eat in a few weeks, and can’t find enough people who will help me eat them. Some nice plum jam to keep all year long sounds ideal, hopefully I can pull this off…

      I wish I have a prunes tree. I really love them.

      You can use the jam also for tea hot or cold ..it can be used to with veggies in grilled chicken pork or fish. To make a curry with coconut milk its very yummi many ways to use

    This is my second year of making this no sugar plum jam. I used the small grape plums and didn't remove the seeds until after I boiled the plums. Turned out perfect. Took a little over an hour to boil to the right consistency.

      Mmmm I bet it is delicious! I don’t think we have grape plums in Romania. Are they sweet?

      I'm also cooking them with the seeds, they're too small to remove them before..fingers crossed that jam will turn up the same as here in video! Thanks for presenting this way ❤🙌💫

    Very nice! I made jam here from wild pears (the trees turned wild after they were not cared for in over 20years, pears reduced in size down to 4-5cm, but very concentrated flavour)
    No other ingredients, not even water!
    Excellent results

    I dont know how long it keeps, it will keep well in a fridge but at room temp, I am not sure, There is no water bath after the jars are filled. The cooking seems to have gone all night. The fruits have cooked so much that the sugars have concentrated but even then, it seems to me it could be spoiled by mold. It would have been interesting to have more info about long term storage.

    • @Peasantartcraft

      If cooked right, until it thickens, they can last years unopened. I have jars in my storage from 2022 that are as good as new.

    Love the traditional dress celebrating ancestry and heritage. The elite can try their best to blur borders and dilute, diffuse and confuse national identity but we ain't playing that daft game. It's so wonderful how each country and indeed province has it's own unique evolution.

    Those are prune plums. They are oval shaped. Perfect for jam. I would've put the pits in a cloth bag and added it to get the extra pectin.❤😊

    Oh wow. Going to make this - I did a few years ago and love this video. The jam here looks like it would be amazing in baking Date (Plum) Squares.

    Hi, beautiful video, I want to make some jam to have for couple years, and I want to know if I need to put something like aspirin or conservative? Thank you 🙏 🇺🇸

    This is much like applebutter...so Plum butter is what I am going to call it when I make it! Looks delicious! So glad I kept searching until I found a "real" recipe that uses no sugar!🤩

    • @Peasantartcraft
      @Peasantartcraft  Рік тому

      Just make sure that the plums are well ripe and sweet. Thank you for watching!

    I went to the homepage and read that she does use a water-bath method for a few minutes after capping the jars...I was wondering about this. 😀

      She's as rich as can be. Cooking on a fire outside is the best.
