    I stewed plums 6 days ago and stored them in the fridge. Are they safe to eat now?
    Community Answer
    If they look good and smell good, take a tiny taste. If they taste okay, put them in a pot with a small amount of water and boil for two minutes for good measure.

  • Question
    Is it safe to make jelly out of plums that have been frozen for five years?
    Community Answer
    Five years is a little past its time. If your freezer has never been faulty in all those years, there is nothing to suggest it isn't safe, but realistically you should just throw them out and buy new plums. Your jelly will probably taste quite gross if you use the frozen ones.

    Should plums be washed before putting them in paper bag (or later in the refrigerator)?

    Fruits typically stay fresher if they are not washed until you wish to eat them.

    Can I store unripe plums in an open cooler for 15 days? If not, what is the best way to store them for 15 days? I have just picked them, they are the purple variety.

    You can store them in a cooler only if it's working properly. If it's not, then probably just store them for 5 day or so.

    Once I cook down the plums and not add the sugar ,can I store them in fridge until next day?

    Community Answer
    Yes, you can store them for the next day. You just can't store them for a little while longer, like 5 to 10 days.
