Stef, Damson plums are definitely NOT duhat… They are smaller more intensely flavored plums than the large commercial ones you would find in any American grocery. My sister makes spectacular damson plum jam and gets bushel of plums from a “secret” source on the East Coast that she won’t divulge for fear of a mad rush for a very limited crop. Damson plums are also available in the U.K. and France.

hi, do you have any idea if damson plum is indeed our Filipino “duhat”? i’ve seen several references that say this, but the damson plum trees available at nurseries/catalogs seem to show a different (bigger) type of fruit? i would love to grow duhat in my yard and any info you might have would be appreciated! loving the NY posts, been trying to copy Payard’s Pont Neuf for a long time.

well enjoy New York food scene… am away too on a road
trip with few hit and run with food…I love brioche.

Speaking of organic products not all Dutchy are very good there are small organic producers in UK that make better kam and marmalades.

As it says in the post, Lexington Avenue between 73rd and 74th Street on the West side of the street. If that isn’t enough detail, it’s on the Upper East Side, on the island of Manhattan. A cab driver should be able to find it with this description.
