Damson Plum Cardamom Jam

Submitted by: Jamie Northern 
The Damson plum makes a tart, flavorful, soft-setting jam that is a rich, deep wine-colored spread for cookies, waffles, bread, or anything else, really. Cardamom adds an unusual and subtle perfume to these preserves. Though this recipe does take some time to complete, the majority of the cooking time is hands-off. The best part? You will not need to purchase pectin from the store!

The rose hips in this jam are uncooked so the jam tastes fresh and sweet; it retains its bright rosy-orange color. The hardest part is seeding the hips which can be sticky, but so worth it! Use wild or cultivated rugosa roses that haven't been sprayed with pesticide; pick them in the fall when they are bright red. I adapted my recipe from one in a Euell Gibbons field guide.

This is a favorite in our family at Christmas. The flavor of the sweet strawberries combined with the flavor of the peppers gives this jam a wonderful flavor dimension. This jam is not spicy, but can be made to be spicy by adding more peppers or a few habanero peppers.

Quince paste is a wonderful accompaniment to cheese and crackers-try it with chevre as well as firmer cheeses. You can also serve it for breakfast in place of jam.
