Hey everyone, hope you’re having an amazing day today. Today, I’m gonna show you how to prepare a distinctive dish, plum and earl grey jam. It is one of my favorites. For mine, I’m gonna make it a little bit unique. This is gonna smell and look delicious.
Plums are in season, and we have been busy thinking up more ways to use them. We were inspired by Heidi Swanson's Rosewater Plum Compote a couple weeks ago, and we set out to make our own plum sauce. We love tea and plums together, so we played around with an Earl Grey concentrate and.
Plum and Earl Grey jam is one of the most popular of current trending foods on earth. It is appreciated by millions daily. It is simple, it’s fast, it tastes delicious. They’re fine and they look wonderful. Plum and Earl Grey jam is something that I have loved my whole life.
To begin with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can cook plum and earl grey jam using 5 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Plum and Earl Grey jam:
- Prepare 450 g plums, stoned and quartered
- Prepare 100 g caster sugar (you can use jam sugar but I'm not entirely convinced it's necessary)
- Prepare 1 lemon, juiced
- Get 1 Earl Grey tea bag
- Make ready 250 ml water
Inspired by my ever-popular Matcha Milk Jam/Green Tea Milk Spread recipe, I thought to change up the flavours and play with my favourite Earl Grey tea and. I used plum jam, but you can use whatever flavor you'd like. For fun, I also infused the extra cream I had left over with some of my favorite Earl Grey tea to make Earl Grey infused whipped cream. The flavor is subtle, but it gives the entire dish a little something-something extra.
Instructions to make Plum and Earl Grey jam:
- Make a pot of tea using the tea bag and water. Leave it to brew for at least 15 minutes - you need it to be undrinkably strong.
- Place all the ingredients in a large pan and bring to a moderate boil.
- Simmer gently for about half an hour. Observe the beautiful jewel-like colours developing in your pan.
- Test the jam using Nigella's clever saucer method (test a teaspoonful on a cold saucer, place in fridge for 30 seconds, if the jam wrinkles when pushed by a finger the jam is set. If not repeat this process every 5 minutes until the jam wrinkles.)
- Remove from the heat, then carefully pour the jam into sterilised jars (4 or so should do it, and I normally run jam jars through the dishwasher before drying them in a low oven - do this while the jam is cooking, removing your jar just before you need it.)
- Seal, label and store. If your jam is reasonably well set you can leave it for quite some time - I have a jar a year old that's still good. Less well set jams should be stored in the fridge and eaten quickly.
Turns out plum jam with Earl Grey might be even tastier than plum jam with cinnamon. I have the plum cinnamon jam on my morning buttered toast and I think "wow!" Then I have the other on another slice of buttered toast and, at that point, I officially can't decide. Our fruity loaf cake makes for the perfect afternoon treat with a cup of tea (earl grey, naturally). Customize your favorite store-bought jam with orange zest and Earl Grey tea. Spread plum jam mixture in an even layer over crust in other pan.
