Orcas Island’s beloved Italian Plums (Prune Alley, in the middle of town, used to be a country lane through an orchard of Italian prune trees) shine in this well-rounded preserve-accented with garden grown anise hyssop. Deep purple, rich, with just a hint of licorice. Try it lathered on toast, dolloped on dessert, or straight from the spoon. Perfect with Delice de Bourgogne or any triple crème. Or use layered into a jam tart with pate brise base and crumble topping.

Just Italian plums, organic cane sugar, organic lemon juice, anise hyssop.
