plum
Prune before drying
A plum is a smooth-skinned stone fruit, typically purple, red, or yellow, with sweet flesh surrounding a pit.
Plum extends to the tree that bears it and to a dark purplish-red color.
Figuratively, a plum is something desirable or choice: a plum assignment, a plum role.
Dried plums are prunes.
