Plums in the Spotlight
Plums are a popular fruit used for various dishes and drinks, both sweet and savoury. From traditional desserts to smoothies and stews, plums add a sweet and fruity flavour to any meal.
Plum cake from Brittany
One of the most popular dishes that use plums is Far Breton. This traditional Breton pudding is made from a simple batter of eggs, milk, flour and sugar, baked with plums. The result is a creamy, sweet, fruity pudding that is perfect for dessert. Far Breton can be served with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream, which makes it even more delicious.
Delicious jam and marmalade
Another well-known use of plums is in a jam. Here, plums are cooked with sugar and possibly spices, such as cinnamon and cloves, to make a sweet, flavorful jam perfect for toast or as an accompaniment to cheese. Plum jam can also be used as a filling in croissants or as a flavouring in pastries and desserts.
Savoury combinations
But plums are not only suitable for sweet dishes. Chefs can also use them in savoury dishes like stews and sauces. For example, combine plums with chicken, pork or game for a flavorful and healthy dish. Plums can also be added to salads and side dishes for a sweet, fruity flavour.
