Super Plums

Today I bought about three pounds of various plums at the Easton Farmers Market. I had hoped to can some, and I did, but my first attempt had little girl not packing the fruit tight enough so I had to repack.

I cut three plus pounds of plums. The Ball recipe says to pack them whole, after pricking them. I wasn't sure I wanted to keep them whole.

HONEY SUGAR SYRUP
- 1 cup sugar
- 3/4 cup honey
- 5 1/2 cups water

Bring to a boil, stirring as needed.

I had planned a raw pack but after we didn't pack them tight enough the results ended up getting a hot pack.

I only ended up with one pint, so I froze some of the honey syrup and, once I drained and repacked the plums, I saved the plum honey syrup and froze that.
