Conserves are a lesser known, more complex type of preserve that includes the addition of dried fruit and toasted nuts. In this case, organic damson plums from my family’s sweet little tree are macerated with plump, dried medjool dates and whole cinnamon sticks overnight, then cooked slowly on low heat for a few hours. A short while before canning, the toasted walnuts are added to preserve their texture.

A festive fall&winter preserve that pairs well with soft, funky cheeses.
