Aromatics as desired (cinnamon stick, cloves, star anise, cardamom) pinch of salt
1-2 tsp fresh lemon/lime juice/ACV
Instructions
For cake: Grind black sesames in a coffee/spice grinder if not already ground.
Mix all the cake ingredients in order listed, adding plums and then ACV last.
Spoon into molds (add extra plum slices on top if desired), and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean, at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
For jam: Add all ingredients to a small pot, bring to a boil, then simmer on low heat for half an hour until cherries are broken down (or longer to bring out aromatics, but add more water in that case).
