Plums are very nutritious fruits. They have a high content of antioxidants and are a rich source of vitamin C, vitamin A, potassium and dietary fiber. Because they have such high levels of vitamin C, they significantly increase iron absorption. It would be good to use this so useful fruit with the main meal more often. This recipe offers an excellent recipe for salted plums!

2. Cut each fruit in half, remove the bones. Cut the plums into slices. We put them in a clean, dry bowl, sprinkle with salt.
