Stewed Damson Plums Recipe

Stewed fruit is nothing less than a fancier-sounding fruit compote. In the culinary world, a compote refers to fresh, canned or dried fruit that has been stewed in a syrup of sugar and other flavorings. And that's exactly what is done here with damson plums. Stewed damson plums can be eaten at all times of the day. Enjoy them as part of your breakfast alongside a warm cereal or french toast; serve on the side with roast pork or ham. And, of course, top with whipped cream and savor at the end of the meal for dessert.
