Sweet Canning Plums

October 29, 2017 By Therese Leave a Comment

Sweet Canning Plums

It’s funny how every year I tend to end up with a bunch of the same fruit or berry. This year I’ve gotten so many plums from friends and family I have struggled with coming up with an idea for them all, but I figured a recipe for canned plums was a must. I simply can’t get enough of what autumn has to bring! These wonderful, sweet and delicious canning plums can stay in your cuppoard for years and still be as delicious- used in desserts or devoured as is straight from the jar!

When canning fruit and vegeatbles it is crucial to use clean, sanitized jars which can be done two ways; boil the jars for a couple of minutes in a saucepan or on the oven for 10 minutes on a 100 degrees celius.

I love canning fruit and vegetables for winter- it’s such a great way to keep what the autumn gives us and especially so we can enjoy fruit and vegetables all through winter.

Nordic Cuisine

The best way to understand the Nordic region’s food culture is more than a trip to Ikea- it’s understanding our traditions, our nature and our people.

Nordic cuisine has never been extravagant, nor has it been fancy- it can best be described with the words of my favorite cafe in Oslo; “By serving a simple slice of waffle with strawberry jam and brown cheese with a cup of coffee on the side”. Nordic cuisine is known to be simple and with few ingredients- ingredients from the areas where we live and the lands surrounding us- like the woods, the sea, the mountains and the fjords. A blend between fresh, seasonal and preserved flavors- often put in jars and stored away in a dark pantry somewhere on a farm- only to be enjoyed and devoured throughout the seasons.

Food is one of the most important things we have in life- and we should all have enough knowledge about food to be able to live a long and happy life. It should not be a burden- nor should it be boring. Food should be something that makes you thrive to be able to live the life you want, it should bring people together in the most wonderful way and last but not least- it should be fun.
