light plum syrup
light syrup, good for vinaigrettes, sorbets, plum drizzle cake & the like
IngredientsMakes: 800g
| 650g | plums | ||
| 300g | sugar | ||
| 300g | water |
Method
| Put the sugar and water into a pan and heat to dissolve the sugar and turn into a syrup. |
| Cut the plums in half along the valley that runs down one side. |
| Twist the two halves to relase the stone from one, then work the stone out of the other half w/ a knife. |
| Quarter each half and add all the fruit to the syrup. |
| Bring to the boil and simmer for 10mins, removing the scum that forms all the while. |
| Resist the urge to blend or mash the fruit and you'll be rewarded w/ a clear pink syrup. |
| Pour the syrup into a sieve and let it drip through without assistance. If you force it through w/ a spoon you'll end up w/ a cloudy syrup. Allow to cool and decant into your favourite squeezy! |
