I went to the grocery store and found a great price on Plums. These are white plums meaning that the flesh inside is white rather than the pink or dark purple. I wanted to make a batch of plum preserve that was different than the black plum I had done a few months prior. I bought 3 lbs and used my previous fruit preserve recipe for canning.
