Frozen plums in syrup – a recipe for proper freezing for the winter with step-by-step photos

Frozen plums in syrup

Ingredients

Servings

Plum

2 kg
Sugar

400 G
Water

1 l

Preparation

Step 1

Cut the plums in half and remove the pits. Place them in containers in an even layer, flesh side down. Otherwise, the fruit will become soft and lose its shape.

Step 2

Heat water in a saucepan and, when bubbles begin to form on top, add sugar. Turn off the heat and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved; do not bring to a boil.

Step 3

When the syrup has cooled to room temperature, pour it over the plums.

Step 4

If there is any excess plum left, place it in a bag and sprinkle each layer with sugar.

Step 5

Place the containers in the freezer and let them set for 24 hours. Then remove them and seal them tightly with bags. Or, if you have them, close them with lids.

Use vacuum bags

If desired, you can store the candied plums in vacuum-sealed bags instead of containers. You might find it more convenient to store them in a small freezer. Or, if you don't want to prepare too many plums at once, you can use this method.
