For Marmelade
For marmalade, simply cook the cut plums with a little bit of water and spices like cinnamon, clove, star anise, vanilla. You can add 1-2 dates, or raisins to make it sweeter if your plums are not sweet enough. First bring to boil and then simmer until they are soft. Add chia seeds (I added 2 tbs for about 1kg plums) before or after blending the plums in a blender or food processor and mix them all. Pour to jars while they are hot, seal well and let them cool. I keep them in the fridge just in case.
