I would make a spicy damson plum and ginger sauce or glaze for the pork either a crown roast or extra thick pork chops/gammon steaks even the small ribs/sweet and sour cut are nice with this sauce, we use to get large jars of preserved damsons and jam in Jamaica at the hotel I was a sous chef at.
If they're hard to stone split them and cook until soft and press the flesh through a sieve or strainer, the pits actually aid in the setting of the jam, also try to quarter them this sometimes will work out the stones and save a few for the garnish of the dish.
I just saute a small onion with a bit of garlic and 2 slices of fresh ginger, add a bit of brown sugar and caramelize the base, then add a bit of vinegar and the plums, cook until soft, now I use black/blue Hungarian plums here in Canada but they are close to Damsons in texture and flavour, then I season it, you can add some spice while cooking like cinnamon, chili flakes or a fresh hot pepper.
Then cook the roast or chop or as I said ribs,and brush the sauce on about 15-20 minute before they are done as it can burn if on too long and serve a bit on the side for extras.
There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.
I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:
1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande
