Pickled plums in liquorice a la Isabella´s Countryliv

This is the sixth recipe in just as many days with focus on PLUMS.

I found this recipe here in the Isabella's Countryliv issue 5/2012, and as it a combination of plums and liquorice, I found it to be a recipe to be tested out in my little kitchen during my plum "cook-out" session last week, where I turned "tons" of plums into many different things.
