Steps:
- Place the plums and water into a large pot, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the sugar, and add butter to reduce foaming, if needed. Bring the mixture to a full, rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly, and then mix in the pectin quickly. Return the jam to a full boil, and boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and skim off and discard any foam.
- Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack the plum jam into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/8 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then carefully lower the jars into the pot using a holder. Leave a 2 inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary until the water level is at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a full boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
- Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area. Refrigerate opened jars for up to 3 weeks.

PEAR JAM
If you like the taste of cardamom you will love this jam. I used a combination of Bosc and Asian pears. I peeled the Asians, but not the Bosc. No-sugar dry pectin is used, so there's 50% less sugar in the recipe.

Tips:
- Choose the right pears: Use firm, ripe pears that are not too soft or bruised. This will ensure that the jam has a good texture and flavor.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to prevent the jam from burning.
- Cook the jam over medium heat: This will allow the jam to thicken slowly and evenly.
- Stir the jam frequently: This will help to prevent the jam from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.
- Use a candy thermometer to test the jam: The jam is ready when it reaches a temperature of 220°F (105°C).
- Let the jam cool completely before storing it: This will help to prevent the jam from becoming too thick and difficult to spread.
Conclusion:
Plum-kissed pear jam is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be enjoyed on toast, biscuits, pancakes, or ice cream. It is also a great way to use up ripe pears. With its beautiful color and unique flavor, this jam is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
