A smooth winter jar from Turkish kitchens, plum marmalade is made by simmering leftover ripe plums with their skins on and straining the mixture into a smooth spread. Unlike jam, it leaves no fruit pieces behind, offering a texture ready to spread straight onto bread.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Simmer the plums

15 min

Simmer the pitted plums with the sugar, lemon juice and water over medium heat for 15 minutes.

2

Strain

10 min

Pass the mixture through a strainer, removing the skins, to get a smooth liquid.

3

Thicken

20 min

Return the strained mixture to the pot and simmer over low heat, skimming the foam, for 20 minutes until thickened.

4

Jar it

5 min

Ladle the hot marmalade into clean jars and seal the lids tightly.

Reminder

Fill the jars while the marmalade is still hot and seal immediately for longer storage.

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

Simmering the plums with their skins on gives the marmalade a deeper, more vivid colour; the skins get strained out anyway.

Şeker miktarını iki su bardağı yerine bir buçuk su bardağına indirdim, eriklerin kendi tatlılığı zaten yeterliydi. Kıvamı biraz daha akışkan kaldı ama tadı gayet dengeliydi.
