A bumper crop of plums this year on the wild thorny tree by the garage, I've made a double dose of the above.

Plum Marmalade
Take two Pounds of Damsons, and one Pound of Pippins pared and cut in pieces, bake them in an Oven with a little Ginger, when they are tender, poure them into a Cullender, and let the syrup drop from them, then strain them, and take as much sugar as the Pulp doth weigh, boil it to a Candy height with a little water, then put in your pulp, and boil it till it will come from the bottom of the Skillet, and so put it up. Hannah Woolley 1670

No plums yet in our baby orchard. So out I go to the farm. Can't wait to try this marmalade!
Reads like a tasty recipe. Heirloom recipe for heirloom fruits and veggies.
