Ingredients

  • 2 pounds halved, pitted prune plums

  • 2 cups sugar

  • 1 teaspoon grated lime zest

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

  • Salt

Directions

  1. Bring plums, sugar, lime zest, lime juice, and a pinch of salt to a boil in a pot, mashing plums with a potato masher. Cook, stirring often, until mixture has the consistency of thick honey. Remove skins using a fork. Let cool. Refrigerate until ready to use (up to 1 month).
