Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.

Method

  1. Use an underripe acid plum.
  2. Wash the fruit and remove the stems.
  3. Put into the preserving kettle with 1 quart of water for each peck of fruit.
  4. Cook gently until the plums are boiled to pieces.
  5. Strain the juice and proceed the same as for currant jelly.
