I've had a spectacular crop of plums and damsons this year which
are falling on to the path quicker than I can pick them up.
There's only a certain amount I can eat, the chickens are fed up
with them, my neighbours have their own trees, so I'll just have
to sweep them onto the borders and wait for the wasps.
One word: Jam.
Plums and Damsons are very easy to jam they have enough natural
pectin to form a set without too much bother.
I don't like jam though :-(
I'm going to try making damson gin. Like sloe gin but damsons, why
not? Or wash the demi-johns out for some wine perhaps.
I make damson gin! Do you want my recipe?
Yes please!
