Ingredients

  • three-fourths pound sugar to one pound plums
  • five pounds currants
  • four pounds sugar
  • one pint vinegar
  • two tablespoonfuls cinnamon
  • three mornings
  • two ta- blespoonfuls cloves

Directions

1

Prick fruit with fork and lay in a .stone jar. Make a rich syrup of three-fourths pound sugar to one pound plums and pour over fruit while hot. Let stand in a cool place until next morning, drain off syrup and heat again, pouring back over plums. Repeat this for three mornings. The fourth morning heat plums and syrup to boiling point, and can. This manner of canning preserves the fruit whole.
