(15)

This plum flummery recipe makes a delicious fruity mousse with a great plum tang. It makes good use of pre-stewed plums, and is especially handy at that time of the year when you have too many plums and quite enough jam, thank you very much! Most of the time it takes to make this recipe is waiting for it to chill sufficiently.
