Fresh and easy Strawberry Jam Recipe.
Ingredients
  • 1 pound strawberries
  • 1 lime
  • ⅓ cup sugar
Instructions
  1. Wash your berries and slice off the stems.
  2. Place in a medium sized bowl and use a fork or potato masher to start mashing them up.
  3. Add ⅓ cup sugar and mash a bit more.
  4. Add the juice from one fresh lime and stir into the berry mixture.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a saucepan and bring to a simmer.
  6. Once the berries start to bubble increase the heat to boil.
  7. Stir the jam frequently for about 6-10 minutes until it starts to thicken.
  8. Don't let it burn! Once the berries start to have bubbles all over and it feels thicker to stir, remove from heat and immediately transfer to a jar.
  9. If you prefer chunky jam you are good to go! For a smoother jelly just add to a food processor for a minute or two.
