i made this exactly as is, except my plums were from my tree, and much smaller then is normal. and it turned out wonderful! i made some regular hamburgers taste fantastic by simply mixing this in prior to cooking. tastes good on crackers too. thanks! oh, forgot to say i did change the cider vinegar to a rice vinegar, just to suit what was on hand. excellent recipe.
