Strawberry Jam
3 simple ingredients, no pectin, and lower in sugar than storebought jam. This strawberry jam is fresh, fruity, and ready in about 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 500 g Strawberries
- 125 g Granulated Sugar
- 1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
Instructions
- If using fresh strawberries, wash them well. Chop them into small pieces and add them to a pot.
- Add the sugar and lemon juice. Stir everything together.
- Place the pot over medium heat. Let it come to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The strawberries will release liquid and start to break down.
- Continue cooking for about 30 minutes, or until the mixture reduces by roughly half. To test: spoon a little jam onto a plate and drag your finger through it, if the line holds, the jam is ready, if not, keep on boiling.
- Once ready, pour it into a clean jar. Close the jar and allow to cool at room temperature before placing it in the fridge. For storage and shelf life tips, read the storage tips above this recipe card.
