"Spices! In jam! This was the jam that made me realize how good homemade preserves could be--and I'm pretty sure it landed me my book deal. You can use any kind of plums. Tart, even under-ripe, plums too puckery to eat out of hand make especially good jams."-Liana Krissoff

 

Recipe: Cardamom-Plum Jam

 

Recipe from Liana Krissoff, author of Canning for a New Generation.
