Hi, all!
I really made a find at the local farmer's market on Saturday!
Plums that seemed to read a bit OVER 32% brix and were the fuzziest reading I have ever seen!!!
They were nothing much to look at, a bit smallish and greenish in color, but they smelled and tasted great, and their juice was as thick as thick canning syrup.
Bought 2 lugs, like the cherries I got a while ago these weighed over 35 lbs when about 3/4 full. More usual is about 20-22 lbs when full.
So...plum preserves will be high enough quality to count as medicine this year. YAY!!!
Would like to have frozen some, but my freezer is FULL!!! Guess I need to go on Craig's list for a larger one, ha, ha!! Or maybe dry some of them????
Here's to happy and healthy eating...
