This is a wonderful condiment! Mine turned out more like a chutney, I think my plums where very sour and had a lot of pectin but the taste is absolutely marvelous. I halved the recipe and used prepared horseradish at the end, it yielded exactly one 8oz mason jar. I served it on a cheese tray, excellent! Made for the "More than Sauerkraut and Dumpling" event at the German Forum.
