Plums are the fruit of the plum tree (Prunus L.), which can grow up to 40 m tall and is a tree or shrub of the Rosaceae family. Relatives, including peaches, apricots, and cherries, plums are no longer found in the wild. Conventionally, the Caucasus is considered the cradle of the plum tree, but due to the widespread cultivation and use of its fruit, this cannot be said with certainty. The first records of cultivation date back to 2000.
Plums are small, round fruits with smooth skin, purple, yellow, red, or green color, and sweet flesh. They are characterized by an above-average richness in vitamins A, B, C, E, and K, and minerals such as zinc, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, calcium, iron, and potassium. Despite all their antioxidants and nutrients, plums are a low-calorie fruit, making them a welcome addition to weight-loss diets.
Plums are recommended for desserts and meat. They also work well as jam, juice, or syrup. Their crushed pulp can be used as a pleasantly moisturizing mask that can counteract broken capillaries and skin aging.
