Very pretty Mrs Gay., this is something i enjoied when i was growing up. We had what my mom called a plum thicket in the back yard, it was really a whole bunch of plum trees that gave us gallons of red plums, we children had to get out there and pick them. It was a lot of work but it was worth it. Mammas plum jelly was some good stuff!🙏❤️🙂

[@ApronstringsGayJordan]

Aprils favorite is plum. So good with peanut butter

[@jomccutcheon2173]

Hello from Crockett, TX. I loved this video. Plums are ripe and the hubby doesn't care for jam, so I found your channel for jelly. Thanks for posting.

Beautiful jelly.

[@ApronstringsGayJordan]

It really is!

[@marygallagher3428]

Yes, the jelly certainly is a gorgeous color :-)

[@ApronstringsGayJordan]

It tastes as good as it is pretty. Yum.....on buttered toast or biscuit. Have a safe, blessed day!!!!

Thanks Gay, I hope you do too :-)

Just happened upon this today. I've got 8 quarts of plum juice frozen, some pulp in it yet. I didn't have time or the ambition this summer to make jelly but I'm planning to this winter. I would want to strain the pulp out? Your video will really help. I wish that 65 years ago I would have paid more attention to mother making plum jams and jelly.

[@ApronstringsGayJordan]

I strained mine. My daughter likes the pure jelly, not jam per say! You can make you some delicious jelly!

[@lfeco]

@@ApronstringsGayJordan Thank you for the reply, I've watched your vid again and while I've never made jelly I believe I can do it.

Good morning.. I love plums and I need to get some next time I go to the Farmers Market. The color is amazing. I find canning and freezing a lot of fun and calming.

[@henrycooks1883]

That jelly looks beautiful, you made a lot, do you still have some left or did you give it all away Gay. I have never had plum jelly, I do apple and grape, believe it or not the concord grape is my favorite but that won't be happening around here until end of Sept., early Oct. same with the apple. Do you ever test it to make sure it gels before you can it, I do just to be on the safe side since I had a whole batch of apple that did not set for some unknown reason, but every one had problems that year.

[@ApronstringsGayJordan]

I think I may still have some. Let me check😍😍

[@williamleckrone1628]

Looks good. I'm not familiar with canning, it seems expensive and complicated with all the stuff you have to buy and like a lot of work. Though I always wanted to get a garden and start canning so my vegetables.

[@ApronstringsGayJordan]

You have an initial expense....but only one time. It's so rewarding....the feeling of accomplishment.....and food in the pantry!! Thank you so much for watching!!!! God Bless you!

Santa Rosa plums were my favorite plums years ago. I haven’t seen them at the stores for years and rarely buy plums anymore. To me they don’t have much flavor unless you know which one are good. Tips?

[@ApronstringsGayJordan]

Susan Ryman I don’t really know. The dark colored ones of these were sweeter. I am really pleased with how it turned out. 😳

I am sure it would. I personally have never used them...but, you use the juice, so if the amounts are correct it should work just fine.
