Quetsches   are dark    purple
plums   that    are grown
mainly  in  the northeast   of
France. They    are about   1½
inches  long    and oblong  in
shape.  The closest plums
you will    find    in  the United
States  are sugar   plums,
French  plums,  d’Agen
plums,  or  Italian plums,
which   you can find    from
August  to  October.    Their
nice    acidic  flesh   contrasts
