Help - too many plums!

[Piccalilli2]

So, my damsons (for gin) turned out to in fact be victoria plums and I have lots. What can I cook with them that I can freeze, as we don't eat puddings during the week?

crumble?

or just stew them, and bag up in quantities to make crumble/pie with, so you just pull a bag out of freezer in the morning, and later in the day can very quickly knock a crumble up to eat - will take up less room in the freezer that way.

plum jam

also, can you swap some of your glut with someone else's?

I'm eating mine. About 12 a day . Keep meaning to stew some to have with natural yogurt for breakfast/pudding but haven't got round to it. I just keep eating them.

Plum jam is lovely, especially if you pop in a few prunes to beef up the flavour.

My grandma used to make plum sherry when there were too many plums on the trees - and i can't tell you how good that was.... :-)
We also cooked the plum jam and I still remember the taste of it.

you can freeze them whole. I have done this, in plastic containers.

De-frosted some the other day and made a crumble - delicious.

Delia does a great Spicy plum Chutney.

We have made Plum Vodka the past two years and I made Plum Rum many years ago - tis yummy :)

Just freeze them raw, whole. I do this every year.
