Method

  1. Put the plums into a narrow-mouthed stone jar ;
  2. to every twelve pounds of fruit take seven pounds of raw sugar, and strew it amongst them as they are put in the jar ;
  3. tie up the mouth of it very close with several folds of paper : put it into a slow oven, and let it stand until the sugar has thoroughly penetrated into the fruit.
