Wild Cherry-Plum Jam - 220g

Wild cherry plums are wild fruits that look like small plums. They have an intense and strong flavour and a distinctive sour aftertaste. Their flavour is strong and their scent is intense. They can only be found in the open country and they are unfortunately less and less common.

This jam is ideal to enjoy the flavour of wild cherry plums. It is dark and thick and has a very particular scent in which one can detect the hint of tannin that is commonly found in wild fruits. The flavour is unique, strong and sour with a very pleasant, sweet aftertaste. This jam is ideal to make tarts, Italian Bundt cakes and cakes with pantry staples. It also pairs exceptionally well with very flavourful, hard cheeses, in particular Parmigiano Reggiano and Pecorino sardo.

The Si.Gi. farm was born out of the passion of the couple Silvano Buccolini and Giuliana Papa for the forgotten fruits of their land which is located next to Macerata. After having started to grow ancient fruit varieties, Silvano and Giuliana opened a lab where they make the most typical jams and fruit preserves. These jars only contain genuine fruit, simple and natural processing methods, traditional tools and cooking methods - such as boiling in an uncovered pot - and, of course, the flavour of delicacies belonging to a bygone era.
