Strawberry Jam

Ingredients:

4 cups fresh strawberries (hulled and halved)

2 cups granulated sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1/2 teaspoon butter (optional, to reduce foaming

Instructions:

1. Prepare the strawberries: Wash the strawberries thoroughly, remove the stems, and slice them into halves or quarters, depending on your texture preference.


2. Cook the fruit: In a large pot, combine the strawberries and sugar. Stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.


3. Add lemon juice: Stir in the lemon juice and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently, until the jam thickens to your desired consistency.


4. Check for consistency: To check if the jam is ready, place a spoonful on a cold plate. After a minute, run your finger through the jam; if it wrinkles, it’s ready.


5. Jar the jam: Pour the hot jam into sterilized jars, leaving a small gap at the top. Seal with lids while still hot, and process the jars in boiling water for 5-10 minutes for longer shelf life (optional).


6. Cool and store: Let the jars cool at room temperature, then store in the refrigerator or pantry.
