TO PRESERVE AND DRY GREENGAGES

This is a preservation recipe designed for long-term storage. Once properly prepared and sealed in sterilized jars, the preserved greengages can be stored in a cool, dark pantry for up to 1 year. After opening, refrigerate and consume within 3 weeks.

Store unopened jars in a cool, dark pantry away from direct sunlight for up to 12 months. Once opened, transfer to the refrigerator and consume within 3 weeks. If any jars fail to seal properly (lid doesn't pop down), refrigerate immediately and use within 2 weeks. Discard any jars showing signs of mold, fermentation, or off odors.
