Plums are easy to eat and surprisingly difficult to cook well. Damsons are sharper still. That is why autumn kitchens turned them into cakes, preserves and fruit cheeses. https://indiefoodblog.blogspot.com/2026/10/plums-damsons-art-difficult-fruit.html #plums #damsons

This Damson tart, based on a Hannah Woolley recipe of 1664, was made last week with damsons picked from a friend’s tree. Scrumptious with a dollop of clotted cream!

You can find the recipe at piespuddingsandpottages.com/recipe-post/...

Looking for advice from folk who grow #Damsons 🤔 This "self set" was growing under the canopy of our Merryweather. Yes: it may be 'orrid or amazing, may even revert to a Sloe🙄. Should I try to train it - or as I've just read "never train Damsons"..? Was thinking fan or espalier - but now..? #damson

Self-set young Damson growing on its own rootstock. 2 or 3 years old, transplanted winter of 25/26.
