Hey Nin,
I really want to make this next week, but for the life of me was not able to find Plum preserves at the store. Will anything else do? I bought Blackberry preserves, if I can't use that, the kids will eat it for PB&J sandwiches. What do ya think? Should I go somewhere else to find it, or will Blackberry do?

I wonder if the Plum Sauce sold in the Asian section of the grocery store would work?

Oh I did'nt think of that! I've honestly never seen Plum Preserves before!
I've never had Mango Chutney before, so I don't know if any other preserve would go with that?
