K_L Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Yumm, that sounds good, what kind of plums do you use? Link to comment
ol'momma Posted September 8, 2008 Author Share Posted September 8, 2008 Truth is, I haven't made it. We had a big frost here in the spring and it wiped out the local fruit crop. I'm hoping to get to the city soon and see if i can find some there. Link to comment
K_L Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 I was just wondering if yellow plums work, I think I will try it it looks really good. what do you think Lady Yarrow "It has garlic" Maybe all send you some, you can put on your sea bugs. Yummmmm Link to comment
Lady Yarrow Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Sounds like a plan K_L! Only I do wish ye'd stop calling the dear little things sea bugs,it really makes them sound a wee bit less appetizing. Link to comment

westbrook Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 oh Naan and plum chutney! Link to comment
Becca_Anne Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Oooh that looks lovely! I will have to try this next time I preserve plums! Link to comment
ol'momma Posted September 9, 2008 Author Share Posted September 9, 2008 Well, if any of you try it, I'd sure like to know what you think. Re-reading that recipe makes me think that it might be a little over medicated with the nutmeg and cloves... But then again, my SIL usually has very good taste! (She married my Bro after all...)
