    Utensils Used
    | 1. JELLY: | 2. Rinse, drain and pit plums. | 3. Cook the plums and water at a fast simmer for 30 minutes, stirring frequently. I use my biggest, shallowest pan that will hold the plums and water and allow for stirring, you want evaporation to take place. | 4. The plums will become very soft and begin to fall apart. | 5. Press the plums and liquid through a coarse food mill. | 6. Combine plums, lemon juice and sugar in a large pan (like a dutch oven) or preserving pan. | 7. Add 1 tablespoon of butter, this helps reduce foaming. | 8. Stir over medium high heat until sugar is dissolved. | 9. Cook jam at a brisk boil (spooning off any foam that arises) until it passes the jelly test, about 10 - 11 minutes. | 10. Add liqueur and cook 2 minutes. | 11. Remove from heat. | 12. CANNING: | 13. Wash jars and screw rings. | 14. Fill electric fry pan 2/3 full with water and bring to a boil. | 15. Put jars in water, upside down along with sealing lids. | 16. Jars should heat at least 10 minutes, and sealing lids at least 3 and should be covered by water. | 17. Ladle jam into jars filing to 1/4 from very top. | 18. Wipe rim with boiling water using a paper towel. | 19. Put on sealing lid and screw on ring. | 20. Turn jar upside down. | 21. Finish all jars. | 22. Turn jars right side up. | 23. Cover jars with a towel. | 24. Jars should seal in 5 - 30 minutes. If jars does NOT seal, use jam, do not store for any length of time. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
