Strawberry Jam

Courses: Preserves
Serves: 6 people

Recipe Ingredients

4   Fresh strawberries - halved
1 cup 237mlWater
5 cups 990g / 34ozSugar
  Juice of one lemon

Recipe Instructions

In a 8-quart stock pot, add the fruit and water and simmer until the fruit is very soft. Add the sugar and lemon juice. Stir to dissolve and bring up to a boil. Maintain at a full rolling boil until the jell point is reached. (Also a skin will form on the surface as it cools.) Remove from the heat. Skim off any impurities and leave to cool for 10 minutes.

Using a funnel, pour the fruit into hot sterilized jars. Fill the jars and wipe the rims. Seal the jars, leaving 1 inch from the top for headroom. Label the jars and store in a cool, dark, and dry place. Spread the jam between biscuits and place on a platter.

This recipe yields about 6 jars (half pints).
