Strawberry Jam

• porties: 10 servings
• actieve tijd: 10 minutes
• totale tijd: 2 hours 10 minutes

Ingrediënten

2 lbs strawberries (900g, halved)

1¼ cup granulated sugar (250g)

2 tbsp lemon juice (30mL)

Instructies

Prep the strawberries by washing, hulling, and roughly chopping.

Add the chopped strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice to a large pot. Place over medium-high heat.

Stirring frequently, bring the berries to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low to keep the berries at a simmer. (If it boils too hard it can overflow the pot, so reduce the heat more, if needed.)

Let the jam simmer for about 45 minutes, frequently stirring, until the jam is thick and syrupy and reaches 220F on a candy thermometer.

Check to see if it's ready by adding a small drop to the frozen plate. Return it to the freezer. After a few minutes, check the consistency. Remove the jam from the heat if it's thickened to your liking or continue simmering until desired consistency.

When it’s done, pour the jam into a mason jar and chill overnight.

Serve on french bread or scones.
