  • 2 1/2 pounds assorted plums (about 10)
  • 2 medium red onions
  • 2 cups water

  • 2 1/4 cups sugar
  • 3 cinnamon sticks
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons whole allspice
  • 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  1. Pit plums and cut into 1/2-inch wedges. Cut onions into 3/4-inch pieces and transfer with plums to a 10-cup (2 1/2-quart) heatproof glass jar with a lid.
