Plum Orange Conserve

Amount	Ingredient
1	orange
1 cup	water
8 cups (3 pounds)	plums
4 cups	granulated sugar
1	cinnamon stick

Preparation Tips:

Scrub orange in hot soapy water; rinse well. Slice very thinly; chop, discarding any seeds. In small saucepan, cover and simmer orange and water over medium heat for 40 minutes or until peel is tender.
In large heavy saucepan or Dutch oven, combine orange mixture, plums, sugar and cinnamon stick; bring to boil over high heat. Boil, stirring constantly, for 10 to 12 minutes or until thickened and setting point is reached (To test for setting point: prefreeze 2 plates. Drop a teaspoon onto one chilled plate; let stand for 1 minute. Run fingertip through jam, if surface wrinkles, jam is ready. If too syrupy, continue boiling, repeat test every few minutes with clean chilled plate until setting point is reached.) Discard cinnamon stick.
Pour into prepared 1 cup canning jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace. Seal with prepared discs and bands. Process in boiling water bath for 5 minutes. Makes 7 cups.
