Zubereitung von Plum Vanilla Jam
- Wash and halve the plums, removing pits.
- In a large saucepan, combine plums, sugar, lemon juice, vanilla bean, and vanilla extract. Mash gently with a potato masher, leaving some plum chunks for texture.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5-10 minutes, or until the jam thickens to the consistency of very thick honey, stirring frequently. Use a spoon to check for consistency - it should coat the back of the spoon thickly.
- Optional: Remove the vanilla bean and zest if desired.
- If you prefer a smoother jam, you can use an immersion blender to partially puree the mixture, but don't completely liquidize it as it is best enjoyed with a chunky texture.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Carefully ladle the jam into sterilized jars, leaving about ¼ inch of headspace. Wipe the jar rims clean, and seal tightly with lids.
- Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes (for longer shelf life) or refrigerate immediately if not canning.
