How to preserve plum compote with pits for the winter
The technology for preparing this preparation is simple. You need to choose ripe plums without damage, otherwise the compote will not store well. Rinse the fruits with warm water and put them in jars.
When preparing syrup, be sure to take into account the following nuances.Place 7-10 plums in a deep saucepan, prick them with a wooden skewer to release the juice. Place on the stove, add half the amount of sugar and fill the contents with warm boiled water. Add 2 sprigs of mint and when the first portion of sugar has completely dissolved, you can add the second part.
After boiling and the remaining sugar has completely dissolved, cover the pan with a lid and turn off the heat. Strain the syrup and pour it over the plums placed in the jars. We roll up the jars with lids, turn them over, wrap them and set them to cool for at least 12 hours.
