Ingredients

10 medium plums, pitted and chopped
1 cup white sugar
½ tsp fine sea salt
½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp chili powder
½ tsp ground cloves
¼ tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp white vinegar

Directions

1

In a heavy-bottomed pot, combine plums and sugar. Cook over medium heat, occasionally stirring, until the mixture transforms into liquid (8-10 minutes).

2

Add salt, ginger, chili powder, cloves, and cinnamon to the pot. Simmer on low heat until you achieve the desired consistency, frequently stirring to prevent sticking (about 15 minutes). Adjust spices as needed.

3

Mix vinegar into the pot and cook over low heat, stirring often to avoid burning (5 minutes). Allow the mixture to cool (30 minutes) before refrigerating. Use within 3 to 4 weeks.
