Confiture de Mirabelles

Confiture de Mirabelles

Last year, I had the opportunity to try the famous Confiture de Mirabelles in France. It's a delightful and aromatic jam. During this plum season, I realized I could recreate it at home.

And it turned out wonderfully! The result was a golden jam with a pleasant aroma, deliciously slightly sticky, and well-gelled. I'm truly proud of it and highly recommend trying this recipe, especially since the ingredients are easily found during their season!
