Red plums are a seasonal fruit that can be found in markets from mid-June to mid-August. They are juicy and sweet, perfect for eating fresh, making jams, or tarts. Red plums are also a good source of vitamin C and fiber.
Here is a seasonal calendar for red plums:
- June: Red plums begin to appear in markets in mid-June.
- July: Red plums are at their peak ripeness during the month of July.
- August: Red plums begin to disappear from the markets in mid-August.
If you're looking for fresh red plums, I recommend buying them during the months of June and July.
Selection tips
- Look at the color. Red plums should be a bright red. If they're too pale, they're not ripe. If they're too dark, they may be overripe and starting to rot.
- Touch the plums. They should be firm but not hard. If they are too hard, they are not ripe. If they are too soft, they are overripe and may start to rot.
- Smell the plums. They should smell sweet. If they don't smell sweet, they're not ripe.
- Avoid plums with spots. Spots are a sign of spoilage.
If you follow these tips, you'll be able to choose the freshest and most delicious red plums.
Conservation
- Store red plums in a cool, dry place. Do not store them in the refrigerator, as this will cause them to lose their flavor.
- Red plums can be stored in the fruit bowl for up to a week.
- If you want red plums to ripen faster, put them in a paper bag with a banana. The banana will release ethylene, a hormone that helps red plums ripen more quickly.
By following these tips, you can enjoy fresh and delicious red plums for longer.
