When plums are getting toward the end of the season in September I can usually pick up a peck for a farily good price. We eat some and then I clean the rest, pack them into jars, make a sugar syrup and can them. You can check out how I do
the process here. In the winter I melt some butter in a frying pan, add some of the plums that I have canned and melt them down. In a seperate pot I boil the carrots. I add the carrots to the sauce one it has cooked down into a saucey base. D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S. My husband who is not a real fan of boiled carrots loves them this way. What's not to love?
You can use fresh but I would lean to the more ripe ones as they will cook down a lot faster and will tend to be sweeter. You may need to add a little sugar. Still very delicious. Hey, if it gets your loved ones to eat more fruits and vegetables then why not.
STAY TUNED FOR A GIVEAWAY ON FRIDAY...
