Homemade Strawberry Jam Recipe Ingredients:
- 2 pounds (about 4 cups) fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- Saved glass jars with lids (ensure they are thoroughly cleaned and sterilized)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Jars: Wash and sterilize your saved glass jars and lids by placing them in boiling water for 10 minutes. Let them air dry completely.
- Prepare the Strawberries: Wash, hull, and chop the fresh strawberries into small pieces.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large saucepan, combine the chopped strawberries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Stir well to mix.
- Cook the Jam: Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
- Skim Foam: As the mixture boils, you may notice some foam forming on the surface. Skim off the foam using a spoon.
- Simmer: Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 30-40 minutes, or until it thickens and reaches the desired jam consistency. Stir occasionally.
- Test for Doneness: To check if the jam is ready, place a small amount on a chilled plate. If it gels and wrinkles when you push it with your finger, it’s done. If not, continue simmering and retest after a few minutes.
- Fill the Jars: Carefully ladle the hot jam into the sterilized glass jars, leaving a 1/4-inch headspace at the top. Wipe the rims clean with a damp cloth to ensure a proper seal.
- Seal the Jars: Place the lids on the jars and screw on the bands until they are fingertip-tight.
- Water Bath Canning (Optional): If you want to store the jam for an extended period, you can process the sealed jars in a boiling water bath for 10-15 minutes. Ensure the jars are fully submerged in boiling water. This step is optional if you plan to consume the jam within a few weeks.
- Cool and Store: Allow the jars to cool at room temperature. You’ll hear a satisfying “pop” as they seal. Store the sealed jars in a cool, dark place. Unsealed jars should be refrigerated and consumed within a few weeks.
- Label and Decorate: Once the jam is completely cool, you can label the jars with custom eco-friendly labels or tags. Add a decorative ribbon or twine for a charming finish.
