Tips:

  • Use ripe, fresh strawberries. This will ensure the best flavor and texture for your jam.
  • Lemon juice helps to preserve the jam and adds a bit of tartness. You can also use lime juice or orange juice, if desired.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the jam's readiness by placing a small dollop on a cold plate. If it wrinkles when you push your finger through it, the jam is ready.
  • Be careful not to overcook the jam, or it will become thick and rubbery.
  • Store the jam in a clean, airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can also freeze the jam for up to 6 months.
