Hi - new to the forum.
I've made a batch of victoria plum jam, but it has set very stiff. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could 'loosen' it a little?

Welcome to the site.  I'm not sure but hopefully someone will be along shortly

You would have to put it back in the pan, and very gently melt it again and add a little water.

Test for setting on  cold saucer so that you don't make it too runny this time and put into clean jars that have been re-sterilised.

Or of course eat it sliced

Thanks sunshineband - mission successfully completed Mind you, Inearly sprained my wrist getting it out of the jar!

We could blend our fruits together, my damson is a tad runny.  I'll have to re-boil for a few minutes.       (but the ten gallons of damson wine is coming along fine)!     Cheers,    Tony.
