Plum Jam

I took the girls to the little park this morning, along the way picking up lunch from the boulangerie. We weren't there long before it started to rain (although Lily did have time to start what she called her 'park lunch'). When we got back, the girls were happy to play kitty's (which involved them crawling around on their hands and knees, miaowing, eating mice, lying down and Lily talking in a funny voice) so I decided to make plum jam. I've had the clean jars, fruit and sugar sitting there for a couple of days waiting for the right time. The recipe is super easy, given to me from Aussie Jen who got it from her Swiss mother-in-law.
Plum Jam
1kg plums, cut up (you can use any fruit)
1kg Gelvite - Sucre gelifiant (I buy it from Migros for Fr. 2.20 and it lists as it's ingredients sucre, gelifiant and acidifiant)
Boil the fruit and sugar for 5mins, blitz with hand-held wand and put into sterilised jars (I just leave my jars in a hot oven for a while). Tight lid, tip jars upside down immediately.

Now all I have to do is label the jars...and add them to my collection of jams (which includes some plum jam from Sept 2004!).
